Improved Alerts System for Customers of a Credit Union

Case Study Improved Alerts System for Customers of a Credit Union Challenges Alliant Credit Union already had an alerts system in place for its customers. But the organization wanted to offer its customers an improved alerts system when they logged into their account online. The new section would need to be more user friendly as well as have responsive design since an increasing number of Alliant customers were using their mobile phones to check their accounts. Alliant also offers multiple plans and a lot of its customers have multiple accounts with the union. The existing system had a cluttered interface with many dropdown menus but unable to show all the accounts in a single screen.

Background Alliant Credit Union is the 6th largest credit union in the U.S. with over $8 billion in assets and serves 270,000 members nationwide. The Chicago-based financial cooperative was established in 1935. It’s mission is to provide benefits to employees, retirees of qualifying organizations and to any person who lives or works in a qualifying community. It is a not-for-profit cooperative, which means its members are its shareholders. Alliant offers its members various financial plans such as savings and checking accounts, loans, debit cards, and even life insurance plans.

ALERTS SYSTEM

Solutions Softweb Solutions created an alerts system for Alliant’s customers that was user friendly and had responsive design using Bootstrap as the front-end framework. Bootstrap is considered by developers as the ideal framework for developing responsive, mobile related projects. The Alerts system that we created for Alliant shows all the four sections in one integrated screen.

CREDIT UNION

Alerts The Alerts section shows Account Balance, Check Cleared, Electronic Deposit and other transaction details. The user can start/stop and set alerts for each of them by selecting the accounts, amount threshold and the delivery method of the alerts (via SMS and email). He can also delete the alerts.

RESPONSIVE DESIGN

In the Alerts section, the user can also configure the alerts (Add/Update/Delete) in such a way that the alerts will be sent out based on its settings such as Amount Balance, Check Cleared, etc. History The History section allows the account holder to filter all the alerts received by date, account type, alert type (check cleared, withdrawal notification etc) and delivery method (email IDs and phone numbers).
