Members Access has been a popular module available to our Abacus One World and Abacus 1.8 customers for quite some time. It has always been a vital service for members Although, never before has it played such a crucial role as it has during the current pandemic of Covid-19. Financial institutions are getting more and more queries from a wide range of their members on getting online. This trend is likely to continue even when this crisis has passed.
Members Access was designed with the focus that it would be secure and easy to use for all members. With that in mind the site uses SSL protocol and 128-bit encryption to provide security for the transmission of member data. It is designed/styled specifically to your website branding or whichever styling of your choosing. It is also linked to your current website so your members will be able to locate their account information all from within an area they are already familiar with.
Not only is Members Access available 24/7, it is real time data so members will have accurate account information right at their fingertips. The members access site has scalability; therefore, it is mobile friendly and can be used on all devices.
