The credit union chose Tyfone for its flexibility, configurability, and ability to meet the growing digital expectations of today’s members and small- to medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Based in Columbia, South Carolina, Palmetto Citizens manages over $1.3 billion in assets and serves 86,000 members across 14 branches in the Midlands region. With this shift to Tyfone’s nFinia platform, the credit union aims to create a more personalized, seamless, and unified digital banking experience—aligning with its long-term goal of becoming a one-stop destination for both personal and business banking.
“Tyfone’s nFinia platform will transform how we connect with our members,” said Chris Terlinden, Chief Marketing Officer at Palmetto Citizens FCU. “Its personalization features help us offer financial solutions that truly fit each member’s unique needs. This move also sets the stage for our continued growth, allowing us to better serve both individuals and businesses with greater sophistication.”
The nFinia platform simplifies digital banking by giving members single-login access to their personal and business accounts. Its open, API-driven architecture makes it easy to integrate with third-party applications—helping Palmetto Citizens stay agile as member needs evolve.
“While our branches remain at the heart of who we are, we know the digital experience is just as important,” added Terlinden. “With nFinia, we’re creating a premium online experience that keeps our personal touch intact, while giving members more convenience and control. It’s about growing stronger with the communities we proudly serve.”
