Baton Rouge, La. – Nov. 30, 2023 – EFCU, a $1 billion credit union headquartered in Louisiana, today announced a partnership with MANTL, a leading provider of account origination solutions, to enhance its online account opening process and improve member experience. This partnership will allow EFCU Financial to deepen its relationship with current members and demonstrates EFCU Financial’s commitment to providing its members with best-in-class digital banking experiences.
EFCU Financial will leverage MANTL for Credit Unions, an omnichannel deposit origination platform that is purpose-built for credit unions with the member experience in mind. MANTL optimizes deposit account applications around three core principles – speed, simplicity and security – to ensure that credit unions are not trading their member experience for their back-office controls. As a result, new applicants can open checking, savings, CD, money market and minor accounts in under three minutes on the MANTL system. Once live, existing EFCU Financial members will be able to open a new share account in under one minute.
“As EFCU Financial continues to focus on new member growth and the member experience in 2024, we knew we needed to invest in best-of-breed technology,” said Tom Kuslikis, CEO at EFCU Financial. “As we have marched past the $1 billion-mark, digital expansion has become a greater priority. We need to equip our team with the right technology in order to meet our members where they want to be met, and provide them with the best account opening experience possible.”
EFCU Financial 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.
“As the third largest credit union in Louisiana, EFCU Financial already demonstrates a commitment to serving their members. MANTL is excited to partner with EFCU Financial and help them grow their member base throughout Louisiana,” said David Carlson, Head of Sales at MANTL. “EFCU Financial will now be able to extend their exceptional member experience to digital channels, and provide a seamless deposit origination process from its very first touchpoint.”
