In May 2021, OCCU is now offering EMV Contactless & Recycled Plastic Debit Cards for our members. Unfortunately we lose the “MyPic Studios” option for our members. For more information on the recycled plastic, click on cpi card group Logo above. (This project began in 2019 working with SHAZAM & CPI.) *Update: Unfortunately, the Recycled Plastic Cards cost skyrocketed, thus we only updated to Contactless at this time.
History…
* October 2017, Upgraded Debit Card from Magnetic Strip to EMV.
In May 2021, After months of obtaining bids and working with various vendors, OCCU renewed with FIS for our Credit Card Portfolio as they lowered our cost and offered new services for early renewal. This strategic move will benefit both our members and our employees.

In March 2021, OCCU had the above banners up on our front page to inform our members of their options on how to handle their 3rd round of stimulus and how to check if it has come in.
In March 2021, OCCU replaced two old drive-thru microphones w/speakers with new ones so now our employees can hear our members in the drive-thru lanes.

In February 2021, OCCU updated it’s Smart ATM software @ the Main Office location to be within deposit compliance. The new screens are amazingly simple and the functionality works much better.

In January 2021, OCCU replaced additional florescent bulbs with LED to provide better lighting inside the Board Room and these should provide a longer life span. In addition, these should reduce our electric bill, thus paying for themselves over time. (This also eliminated the noise from older light system)
In January 2021, OCCU changes NADA pull provider from LSCU’s Leverage to CU*South, our core processor. This is after JD Power took over NADA and forced everyone to raise their cost associated with such NADA valuation pulls. This move from Leverage to CU*South is a cost effective move from January 1, 2021 forward. In addition, this gives us integration into our Core Software making this more effective for our members and employees. (Note: Only Autos are available, however we still are awaiting Marine, Motorcycle, & RV configurations)
