Offering contactless cards can come at an added cost, but it can pay off in the long run for credit unions (CUs). In the “Credit Union Tracker,” a collaboration with PSCU, Navy Federal Credit Union’s Tynika Wilson explains why kicking their contactless innovation plans into overdrive can give CUs an edge in the years ahead.

Inside the February Tracker
