Card Briefs: Wis. Credit Unions Back CUNA Processor

PEWAUKEE, Wis. - The Wisconsin Credit Union League has endorsed the CUNA Service Group's card services division, an affiliate of the Credit Union National Association, as processor for members' automated teller machine and debit cards.

The Wisconsin group thus became the first state credit union league to back the national credit union association's arrangement for linkages among national and regional card networks.

The partnership went into action July 1 when Niagara Area Credit Union became the first in Wisconsin to process transactions through CUNA Service Group's national switch and authorization center. By mid-July, the program will be rolled out statewide.
