May 2022
Summer is drawing near, and I am already craving that extra vitamin D that I am sure we all need so badly.
While the days have gotten longer, the time only continues to fly by. As always, though, our Digital team is working like a bunch of busy bees to produce all the sweetness we can for you! Here’s a look at what we have to buzz about this month.
Great news for SilverLake and CIF 20/20 financial institutions that offer JHA Full Service Credit Cards (FSCC)! We're happy to announce Separate entity credit card support for JHA Full Service Credit Card customers. When Banno Mobile™ version 2.42 hits the app stores in early June, your users can start managing their own cards separately from the account owner's.
This change will also let your financial institution accomplish more for users:
Contact sales to learn more.
Available now for Separate entity customers*, credit card controls give your users the ability to self-service when life happens. With Banno Mobile 2.42, users can do more to manage their cards on the run:
*Currently, only Separate entity customers qualify for this feature.
Today, MyCardRules is available to both CPS debit and FSCC customers. Previously, however, FSCC customers were required to be debit card customers as well. With Banno Mobile 2.42, we're removing the debit card dependency and allowing FSCC-only customers the ability to offer MyCardRules.
Don't forget these goodies from recent statements:
We're rolling out our Finicity integration for all financial institutions later this summer, making Fincity's hundreds of partner apps available as external applications that your users can elect to adopt and manage in Banno.
For details, revisit our implementation plan in the April statement.
To provide more useful descriptions for in-house credit card transactions, we've placed key info (like the merchant or retailer details) front and center, as seen in this example:
STARBUCKS 5853 614-575-3742 OH Date 11/28/21 04445710000067768677680 5411 Loan Advance Credit Card Visa Platinum
Remember when we announced that we would eventually enable short codes for all financial institutions to improve how our two-factor authentication (2FA) login codes are delivered? That time has arrived, and you can expect your users to start receiving 2FA codes via the short code at some point during June. No support case or further action required.

We also updated our Creating a Banno Mobile account user guide.
Very soon, we will be adding some granularity to how admins grant employee permissions for Banno SupportSM. Before long you will notice a Manage support settings permission checkbox under the Support section of Users & Groups.
This new permission will let you lock down access so only approved employees can edit support settings. The added layer of control should hopefully give your financial institution additional confidence to extend the use of Banno ConversationsSM to personnel across departments.
Hang tight for a follow-up announcement with more details as we approach release.
In last month's statement we announced that the Change internal loan transfer type: CU project will give your members the option to complete internal loan transfers on delinquent loans, which had not been possible due to limitations with Share Transfer records. To knock down the barrier, we've implemented the new (9) Off Cycle transfer type and can now access the Loan Transfer records needed to support internal transfers on delinquent loans.
These changes will go live with Banno Mobile 2.42. Once you've worked with your SymXchange contact to ensure that the required operations (searchLoanTransferPagedSelectFields, createLoanTransfer, and updateLoanTransferByID) are enabled and everything follows the SymXchange blueprint, members will be able to create internal loan transfers on delinquent loans. Your employees will then see these loan transfers in People along with the specific member’s other transfers.
We also heard from a couple folks during the Digital Meetup who do not want to use the new (9) Off Cycle transfer type. As communicated in the SLA we sent to our credit unions, if you would like to opt out of this functionality, please complete this short survey (by June 10, 2022).
In case you missed our quarterly webinar this month, there’s a new security feature on the way for SilverLake customers in September. Our Direct Connect feature—for consumers who use an Intuit or Quicken desktop product—will let users authorize specific connections to their accounts, effectively blocking all other related connections. This will increase the security for your users’ accounts by establishing a two-factor authentication (2FA) requirement before they can connect an Intuit or Quicken desktop product to Banno.
We will enable Direct Connect for SilverLake financial institutions automatically during September. If you’re interested in opting in sooner, check out the Forget-Me-Nots section in the June statement for info on early adoption.
Bots be gone! Ever get tired of bots spamming your websites and filling your inbox with junk? With our new feature reCaptcha (a Google fraud detection service) for Form Builder, your CMS sites now have the ability to distinguish between humans and bots on our websites. This feature has been turned on for all of our CMS customers, so start enjoying less spam today!
