What do credit unions provide to attract and keep members loyal? Perks. And that's the whole idea behind Larky's new Nudge -- a rewards app (built-in to a credit union's mobile banking) that connects the credit union and the member at the right time using location-driven engagement to provide these perks.

Larky CEO and Co-founder Gregg Hammerman shares some of the technology's uses (already being used at financial institutions in 26 states and 3 Canadian provinces):

Promote auto loans when a consumer is at a car dealer
Remind an audience of a nearby perk, benefit, or discount nearby
Promote mortgage products when a consumer visits a realtor at an open house
Increase debit/credit card usage
Measure customer satisfaction via mobile surveys as consumers leave a branch
Plan new branch locations, and more

Mark Rockefeller, CEO and Co-founder of StreetShares, joined us on the program to discuss how his small business lending platform can be implemented at financial institutions within 30 days -- which sounds too good to be true. But Mark assured that it is, indeed, true.

Mark added that StreetShares is a small business loan provider with a focus on serving veteran-owned small business and their communities. That aspect of their business is incredibly special in itself but to add the robust, easy-to-implement software is a massive bonus.

Here are some of the other questions we asked Mark, who is a veteran himself...

StreetShares recently presented at Finovate – how was it received?
Small business lending has not been an area where financial institutions typically focus but is vitally important -- especially with non-banks getting into this business. Why do you think this is the time for credit unions to embrace this?
How does your technology enable credit unions to grow small business relationships?

There's much more in our discussion, so check it out and let us know your thoughts.
