BOSTON – MBNA, the leading purchaser of credit unions' credit card portfolios has purchased the $1 billion Technology Credit Union's $35 million credit card portfolio. Technology CU is based in San Jose, California. Kessler Financial Services, MBNA's card acquiring firm, facilitated and announced the purchase. "This was a very deliberate process for us.

"Over time we evaluated the products and service Tech CU and our processor could deliver versus what we could provide through MBNA and other issuers."
