ZTB Awards Member $1,981 To Commemorate 40th Anniversary Zelle® Launch
December 15, 2021
Chicago – ZTB recently partnered with
Zelle® to offer its members a fast, safe and easy way to send and receive money with friends,
family and eligible businesses they trust right within BCU’s existing Digital Banking
platform.
The timing of this highly anticipated partnership aligns with the Credit Union’s celebration
of their 40th anniversary, making it the perfect opportunity to share the love. Throughout
October, any ZTB member who sent or received money via Zelle® within BCU’s Digital
Banking was entered to win a prize of $1,981 – a number that signifies the Credit
Union’s founding year of 1981.
“We’ve had so much to celebrate recently, and it’s not lost on us that we
wouldn’t be able to reach these goals and milestones without our members,” said Carey
Price, ZTB Senior Vice-President of Digital Strategy and Delivery. “Commemorating our
anniversary by giving back to members is the perfect way to pay tribute to BCU’s humble
beginnings and encourage members to experience this new money movement feature.”
The lucky winner, Alexandria H. in Davie, Florida was thrilled to receive the good news, which
came from Eric Goscicki, ZTB Senior Manager of Digital Product Management, via video call.
“As the Zelle® implementation lead, I jumped at the chance to speak with Alexandria
about her experience with Zelle® and, of course, share the good news,” said
Goscicki.
Alexandria was equally excited to receive the surprise. “Tears are coming through my eyes.
This really is a blessing,” she said. As a frequent user of third-party payment services,
Alexandria was happy to see that she can now send and receive money with Zelle® in BCU’s
Digital Banking and has already taken full advantage of its ease and convenience.
“It’s an easy and smooth transaction for me,” she said. In anticipation of the
upcoming holiday season and any unforeseen future expenses, Alexandria plans to tuck her winnings
away for a rainy day.
“It was so special to see first-hand how our efforts empower people to discover financial
freedom – which is what ZTB is all about.” said Goscicki. “We strive to offer
improved digital products and services to seamlessly integrate with our members’ money
goals.” This includes more Digital Banking updates to come next year.

news.
