Global announces the implementation of Calcubot- the Facebook loan calculator

SPOKANE, WA (November 14, 2013) — Global is proud to announce their recent partnership with Shastic, a technology company offering consumer facing tools for financial institutions, to provide Calcubot, a Facebook loan calculator.

Calcubot is located on Global’s Facebook page and allows consumers to calculate an auto or mortgage loan, get advice from Global and apply directly for loans.

Calcubot is quick, simple and user-friendly. Consumers can get calculations in seconds and apply for a loan at their convenience. They can also share their calculated loan results with their friends on their personal page.

With the steady increase of technological innovation, consumer demand for financial access to mobile and online tools continues to grow. With consumers’ busy schedules today, there is an increased need for efficiency and accessibility which is why Global has developed products and partnered with companies to meet these needs.

Along with Calcubot, Global has recently launched Mobile MoveIt, a component of Global’s mobile suite that moves money to anyone, anywhere, anytime. Global has also joined forces with AskAuto, a mobile app that allows consumers to research cars and apply for loans directly from their cell phone. With two more projects that improve online efficiency and accessibility slated for January, Global continues to meet this ever growing demand.
