In addition, NAFCU member credit unions receive special benefits on Discover’s payment solutions.

All of which are values that fit perfectly with the solutions offered in the NAFCU Services preferred partner program.”

Kevin O’Donnell, vice president of credit issuance at Discover, said: “Working with NAFCU Services enables us to better deliver innovative payment network solutions to credit unions. We value the credit union mission and strive to support and enhance the important role credit unions have in their communities.”
