The platform will provide Central State members with an array of services, including credit monitoring, integrated card controls, bill pay, and a fully navigable online and mobile interface.

“Delivering an exceptional member experience has always been our top priority, and we’re thrilled to take it to the next level,” said Paul Kramer, President and CEO of CSCU. “After an in-depth review of digital banking vendors, Mahalo clearly rose to the top, not just for its powerful platform and innovative capabilities, but for its deep integration with Symitar and its commitment to partnership and delivery excellence. With Mahalo, our members will enjoy a modern, intuitive, and secure digital banking experience designed around their evolving needs. We’re confident this partnership positions us and our members for continued success.”

Mahalo’s platform will enable CSCU members to more easily manage their finances and access a full range of digital tools through an integrated online and mobile experience. These enhancements will allow CSCU to expand its remote service capabilities, reduce friction in daily transactions, and deliver a more modern, connected member experience. Key features include SavvyMoney credit monitoring tools that provide actionable insights to help members strengthen their financial health, Zelle integration for fast and secure peer-to-peer transfers across financial institutions, and credit card integration within the digital banking platform for simplified access and management.

“The digital landscape is constantly evolving, and Mahalo’s platform equips CSCU to stay ahead of member expectations,” Kramer said. “The technology’s flexibility and scalability will allow us to continuously improve our digital offerings, reduce friction, and deliver personalized financial solutions that align with our members’ goals.”

“CSCU’s commitment to delivering a seamless and intuitive digital experience reflects exactly what our platform was built to support,” said Denny Howell, COO of Mahalo. “We design technology to drive meaningful, member-centric impact and help credit unions stay ahead of evolving expectations through continuous innovation. By working closely with CSCU’s team, we are implementing a solution that empowers members to manage their finances with confidence while supporting the credit union’s long-term digital growth strategy.”
