Gulf Coast Bank Chooses Spiral to Boost Customer Savings and Community Impact Through Everyday Banking

Gulf Coast Bank adds Spiral to allow customers to grow their savings effortlessly and support charitable causes of their choice through everyday purchases and digital banking accounts.

Spiral, the award-winning personalized banking platform, today announced a partnership with Gulf Coast Bank, an LA-based community bank known for its customer care and dedication to giving back. This partnership will enable Gulf Coast Bank to better help its customers' financial well-being and increase community support. This partnership will also amplify engagement and grow deposits through new personalized digital experiences. Customers will be able to turn everyday purchases into savings and community impact, with the ability to easily donate through an engaging digital Giving Center.

By integrating Spiral's Everyday Impact™, Gulf Coast Bank's personal and business banking customers will be empowered to round up their everyday purchases to effortlessly save for their future while also being able to support charitable causes and initiatives of their choice — such as providing Wi-Fi for children through the Boys & Girls Clubs of Acadiana and essential mental health support to veterans in need through Acadiana Veteran Alliance. In addition, Gulf Coast Bank's new Giving Center will allow customers to easily donate to the causes they care about directly from their online bank accounts. Through this new Giving Center, customers can create a tailored portfolio of causes, track their charitable impact, and receive a donation report for tax purposes.

"We're proud to build upon our legacy of philanthropic donations. By offering simple ways for our customers to grow their savings and make a positive difference, we're continuing our mission of giving back to the communities we serve," said Jason Patout, Senior Vice President at Gulf Coast Bank.
