Randy Woodson, chief banking officer at Washington, N.C.-based First South Bank, shared, “Our goal is to be at the center of our customers’ financial journey. This partnership brings our digital experience to an entirely new level, one that competes with even the largest banks. It enables us to honor our commitment as a true community bank that builds trusted and personalized relationships, demonstrating that we know and understand our customers through their digital experience just as well now as we did face-to-face in the branch decades ago. With JHA Online Financial Management, we can engage in the micro-moments of their everyday lives, the small pieces of banking that lead up to major financial decisions that meet their life goals.”
Chris Schell, senior vice president of marketing at Madison, Wisc.-based Summit Credit Union, commented, “Banking is not about transactions, it’s about helping members succeed financially and reach their goals. The partnership between Jack Henry & Associates and Geezeo provides us with a more convenient, insightful and comprehensive perspective for members to assess their finances and improve their incremental progress. In turn, this increases our credit union’s value proposition and solidifies our commitment to offering the best member service.”
JHA Online Financial Management’s marketing platform compiles the financial and behavioral data banks and credit unions need to generate accurate consumer insights and highly targeted promotional offers that can increase wallet share. Financial institutions also benefit from free marketing support and programs designed to drive user adoption.
Shawn Ward, CEO of Geezeo added, “Financial institutions need online financial management to compete in a digital world to keep their best customers engaged. Consumers are gravitating toward such personal and sophisticated services, often as a means to improve their financial status, which translates to an opportunity for institutions to offer more relevant products. Digital advances like OFM position institutions to compete more effectively and maximize an emerging, long-term growth trajectory.
David Foss, president and CEO of Jack Henry & Associates, explained, “The integration between digital banking, core data, and financial management tools is a critical part of today’s user experience. Beyond being a digital differentiator, this enables financial institutions to create a nurturing environment where they can have more of an impact on consumers’ financial health.
