RANCHO CUCAMONGA, Calif. (April 15, 2013) - CO-OP Financial Services has announced a new iPad App for CO-OP Mobile enabling iPad tablet users to connect to their personal account status and history as well as credit-union-hosted web pages for information on rates or services.

"The iPad App for CO-OP Mobile is another indicator that mobile banking is a key to competing successfully in the future," said Stan Hollen, President/CEO, CO-OP Financial Services. "This application gives credit union members access that they expect and offers credit unions a way to customize and differentiate their services from competitors."

By adding the iPad App for CO-OP Mobile, credit union members now have account access via one of the most popular tablet channels for mobile banking.The iPad is the most widely used tablet in the market, according to a recent study by Pew Research Center. Ownership has increased from 5 percent of American adults to about 20 percent in the past two years. When users are categorized by households that earn $75,000 or more per year, that figure increases to 47 percent.

A wide variety of financial services via the iPad app are easily accessible to credit union members using CO-OP Mobile. iPad access includes account balances and  cash flow charts that summarize debit and credit activity; account history; transfers; and GPS-enabled access to CO-OP Network ATM or CO-OP Shared Branching locations. In addition, the app enables each credit union to customize with member access to their own hosted web pages for loan/account opening services, rates and promotions; or social media sites such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube.

The new iPad App for CO-OP Mobile adds to the product line's full range of mobile banking solutions, which also includes iPhone and Android applications; and CO-OP My Deposit Mobile for iPhone/Androids, Mobile Web and Text Banking.
