TEMPE, Ariz. — The $193 million Altier Credit Union has issued a press release to promote the Financial Services Center Cooperatives' shared branching through Vcom kiosks located in 7-Eleven convenience stores.
Shared branching transactions became available in the kiosks in September through a relationship with the Financial Services Center Cooperatives shared branch network. Altier had already been a member credit union of FSCC, but members of all credit unions that use shared branching can transact business at the machines.
"We are constantly striving to provide members with more access to their accounts, anytime, anywhere," said Rico Bautista, a senior vice president with the CU.

Bautista explained that Altier had surveyed its members about whether they would conduct transactions through a kiosk and considered the response–more than 50% said that they would–as an endorsement of the new technology.
"We have a very technology savvy membership," he said, adding that more than 35% of its members have started banking online. "We were also one of the first credit unions to bring shared branching to Arizona so we definitely have a commitment to the idea and to how it can make our members' have more convenient financial lives."
