National Institutes Of Health FCU Signs EFT Pact With First Data

ROCKVILLE, Md. – NIH FCU yesterday announced it has contracted with First Data Corp. to outsource the management of its ATMs.

The $500 million credit union also has renewed its agreement for electronic funds transfer (EFT) services through First Data’s STAR Network.

The contract calls for First Data and its partner NCR to provide full-service ATM management services – including ATM driving hardware and software, ATM first line and second line maintenance, and Check 21 deposit acceptance. NIH FCU will use NCR APTRA Deposit Gateway, a web-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution that enables financial institutions to perform check image processing for envelope-free deposits made at the ATM.

In addition to providing STAR Network access, First Data will provide signature debit processing, and the credit union’s account holders gain access to more than 37,000 surcharge-free ATMs through STARsf.
