TEXAS CREDIT UNION LEAGUE NAMES
TNB CARD SERVICES
AS ENDORSED PROVIDER FOR DEBIT SERVICES
DALLAS
– May 8, 2006 – The Texas Credit Union League (TCUL)
has designated TNB Card Services as its endorsed
debit card processing provider for TCUL’s 600 plus
member credit unions. That designation is in
addition to TCUL’s recognition of TNB as its
preferred business affiliate for credit card
processing, which has been in effect since TNB began
its card program in 1976.
The
TCUL endorsement of TNB’s debit card program
recognizes TNB as the preferred provider for all
electronic payments, including credit card, agent,
and PIN and signature debit solutions.
TNB’s
full-service plastic payment solutions offer Texas
credit unions a single-source provider for all
payment processing and agent solution needs.
“TNB’s
exemplary security practices for its card services
provide a major benefit to our credit unions,”
said Tom Hodge, vice president, sales and marketing
of TCUL. “Credit unions using TNB’s card payment
services can increase member benefits and revenue
through turnkey marketing programs, and lower losses
due to card security issues. The security
capabilities of TNB exceed industry standards and
practices.”
To
mark the endorsement, TNB launched a special “Rev
Up Your Debit Program” campaign, which kicked off
at TCUL’s annual convention in Galveston, Texas,
April 19-21. The campaign, which continues through
this fall, promotes TNB’s PIN and signature debit
card solutions and offers a chance to win a
Harley-Davidson® Sportster XL 883. The promotion
created quite a “buzz” at TCUL’s convention
with hundreds of credit union attendees registering
for the drawing and having their pictures taken on
the Harley.
