FIREFIGHTERS FIRST CREDIT UNION ADDS DIGITAL RECEIPTS TO THEIR MOBILE BANKING APP

January 2021— LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA – Firefighters First Credit Union launched Digital Receipts within their mobile banking app, FireFirstCU. Digital Receipts allows members to capture purchase receipts from any source—paper, email or online—and store them in a single, searchable cloud database accessed
from any mobile device.


“Paper receipts are a nuisance,” said Kelly Ramsay, Firefighters First Credit Union’s Senior VP, Marketing. “Most of our members don’t have a good system for keeping them. Email receipts makes tracking purchases easier but merging them with paper records becomes a headache at tax time. Digital Receipts solves everything.”


The Digital Receipts feature also allows users to set alerts for returns. “I think everyone has had the experience of hunting down a paper receipt for an item you want to return, only to find you’ve missed the allowable return window,” said Ramsay. “You can capture a receipt and set an alert right at the point-of-sale. It only takes a few seconds longer than stuffing it into your wallet.”


Digital Receipts is the first of several upgrades Firefighters First will be adding to their mobile app. “Our members rely on their mobile devices for banking. Firefighters often don’t have the time or opportunity to sit at a desk and open a laptop,” said Ramsay. “Firefighters exemplify trust, loyalty, and service and we want to reflect that in the way we take care of our members’ financial life.”

Mortgage Rates Tick Down

MCLEAN, Va.--Mortgage rates moved slightly lower this week, with the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaging 6.56%, Freddie Mac reported. “Mortgage rates are at a 10-month low,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist. “Purchase demand continues to rise on the back of lower rates and solid economic growth. Though many potential homebuyers still face affordability challenges, consistently lower rates may provide them with the impetus to enter the market.” The 30-year FRM averaged 6.56% as of Aug. 28, down from last week when it averaged 6.58%. A year ago at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.35%. The 15-year FRM averaged 5.69%, unchanged from last week. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 5.51%, Freddie Mac said. ____________________________________________ Check out NCOFCU's additional features: First Responder Credit Union Academy Podcasts YouTube Mini's Blog Job Board

Many CUs Likely to Face New Operating Challenges "Michael Moebs"

04/08/2024 09:04 pm By Ray Birch LAKE FOREST, Ill.—The trend lines don’t lie: Financial institutions charging high overdraft fees will likely face operating challenges in the near future and may even be forced to merge if they don’t follow the market trend of lowering their OD charge. Michael Moebs, economist and chairman of Moebs $ervices, is offering that forecast following his company’s new overdraft study, which has found overall net OD revenue for 2023 was down 5.7%, with banks dipping by 8.1% to $31.4 billion, thrifts falling by 28.6%. and credit unions actually increasing net revenue 2.2%. The study further reveals the m...
