LIVERPOOL, N.Y. — Edge Federal Credit Union (FCU), a Liverpool–based credit union with $39 million in assets and nine full-time employees, has launched a mobile check-deposit service for members.
Edge FCU contends it’s one of the first credit unions in Central New York to offer such a service.
“Many of the larger national banks and credit unions have the service, however, it is tough to come by in many credit unions because of risk and operating costs, being that credit unions are not-for-profit financial institutions and give any gains back to the membership,” Aerik Radley, marketing & communications specialist for Edge FCU, said in a news release. She said the credit union’s members were requesting the service.
