The Texas credit union will enhance online and in-branch account opening to create a one-stop shop for members and employees to open all new deposit account types
San Antonio, TX – March 24, 2025 – Soarion Credit Union, with six financial centers in Texas, today announced a partnership with MANTL, a leading provider of account origination solutions, to enhance its member deposit account opening processes. This partnership will allow Soarion Credit Union to seamlessly open new member accounts on any banking channel, at any time, improving the member and employee experience and unlocking deposit growth.

“Soarion Credit Union is continuously working to find innovative solutions that benefit our members and elevate their experience with us,” said Monica M. Benavides, Soarion’s Chief Member Experience Officer. “This new partnership with MANTL will help streamline our processes and get new members started even sooner on their journey to reaching their financial goals.”
By integrating MANTL with its Jack Henry Symitar core, Soarion Credit Union will now be able to automate over 90% of application decisions, including KYC, AML, BSA, product service ordering, funding, and core booking, to create efficiencies and keep manual processes to a minimum.
