  23. Sprint Contract Year 2013 – 2014 Contract Year 1,909 Credit Unions 81% (1,541) are currently considered “Active” 19% (368) are currently considered “Inactive” ACH Sprint Marketing Incentive Payments Nearly all league/LSC payments are made via ACH. If your organization is not yet signed up to receive the Sprint marketing incentive via ACH, please contact Lisa Treat. Moving toward credit union ACH payments. Begin with credit unions with largest check amounts. Contract Year = October 1 of each year through September 30 of the following year.

  24. Sprint Marketing Requirements Smaller Sprint Incentive Check? Incentives are generated from overall member usage. Currently, there are more credit unions participating (more incentive checks to distribute), participating credit unions are not reaching members as often and fewer members are signing up on a monthly basis. These facts coupled with the effects of verification, make it essential to ensure that credit unions are fulfilling all the minimum marketing requirements.  Credit Union Minimum Marketing Requirements • Promote Sprint service exclusively • Include a quarterly statement insert at least once per Contract Year • Continuously display Sprint lobby materials • Publish approved newsletter articles at least two (2) times per Contract Year • Display approved Sprint banner and link on credit union website CUSG Audits  Web Ad & Link  Newsletters Articles Proof of newsletter articles can be viewed in multiple ways: Web posting (link), email, fax or mail. The reason we send monthly reports to the leagues/LSCs is to give you the opportunity to communicate the information with your credit unions and update our team as needed.

  25. Sprint Verification Progress Current Verification Numbers From January program numbers, overall verification remains at 57% (as of October 2013).33% of new customers validated in October 2013, while those revalidating (already on the program) are validating at 11% in October 2013. Of all customers that attempt to validate under the program, 97% are successful as of October 2013. Invest in America App Usage Launched December 7, 2012 Downloads : 56,743  Apple: 29,426  Android: 46,145 App Verification Submissions: 75,571

  26. Verification & Sprint’s AutoPay For members paying their Sprint monthly bill through Sprint’s AutoPay option from their credit union checking account or credit union debit/credit card, verification is as easy as it gets. • Members sign up for Sprint’s AutoPayonline using their credit union account (checking, credit card or debit card). • Sprint pulls the R&T and credit/debit card BIN numbers monthly and verifies credit union membership for all accounts being paid through Sprint’s AutoPay from a credit union account via the above methods. • These members are validated monthly each time the report is pulled and members verified through this process have no need to go through any other verification process. CU Solutions Group and Sprint are investigating the possibilities of expanding the automatic payment verification option when automatic payment is set up through the credit union online banking or for members who make payments using a credit union credit or debit card.

  27. Sprint Verification Reminder Verification is easy and only takes a few minutes to complete. There are three additional ways to verify credit union membership: 1.
