Keesler Federal Credit Union (KFCU) is the first credit union to implement the Online Banking Solutions’ (OBS) Messenger Business Center secure online business banking product. Messenger Business Center (MBC) is an extension of the proven OBS Messenger Center, along with Messenger Financial Center, Messenger Delivery Center, Messenger Commerce Center and Messenger Security Center product suites.

In addition to providing traditional consumer and business services and competitive business transaction services to its members, Keesler Federal recognized a need for secure online business banking services. The KFCU team selected OBS Messenger Business Center, which is designed specifically for small and emerging businesses. Key factors to its decision were: a high degree of security, any-channeled/mobile access, payments capability, ease of providing services to members, ease of customer support, business administrative tools, and the ability to easily adapt services to a single customer or market segment.

Experience is at the heart of the Keesler Federal-OBS relationship. According to Mel Valenzuela, SVP & Chief Lending Officer of Keesler Federal, “OBS brings both technology and banking experience to the partnership, enabling us to deliver competitive business banking services to our members. We view Messenger Business Center as a secure, “one-stop” point of access for a variety of member business services.”

On partnership, Dan Myers, CEO and founder of OBS said, “We are dedicated to serving the unique needs of credit unions and their member businesses and value our relationship with Keesler Federal Credit Union. We know that our solution will help Keesler Federal better serve its business customers and grow its base through more competitive and secure online business banking services.”
