Dear Spiral Community,

We're excited to share the news of our partnership with Foothill Credit Union, a leading California-based financial institution. This partnership will enable Foothill CU to drive primary relationships and grow deposits through new personalized digital experiences. With Spiral, members can effortlessly save for their financial goals through everyday purchases while also supporting local nonprofits and community causes.

Personalized Savings and Impact

By embedding Spiral's Roundup Center seamlessly directly into the Alkami Digital Banking Platform, Foothill's members can automatically round up their everyday debit card purchases and direct the spare change toward their savings goals or support their favorite charitable causes, directly benefiting their communities and local nonprofits. In addition, the new Giving Center will enable members to easily donate to their preferred charities directly from their digital accounts, create a tailored portfolio of causes, track their charitable impact, and receive a donation report for tax purposes.

"Our members trust us to help them build a stronger financial future while supporting the communities we all share," said Jonah LaFollette, Chief Strategy Officer of Foothill Credit Union. "Spiral makes it easy for members to grow their savings and make an impact through banking experiences they already use every day."

Helping Members and Communities Thrive

The partnership positions Foothill CU to deepen member engagement while driving digital donations directly from its member base to local nonprofits, expanding its offering for charitable organizations, and attracting more nonprofit partners to create positive change through fundraising campaigns, donation matching, and community-wide events

"Foothill Credit Union has a long history of helping members and strengthening its served communities," said Shawn Melamed, CEO and Founder of Spiral. "We're proud to help credit unions deepen member relationships and grow deposits by making it easier for members to save more and support the causes they care about."
