“SHAZAM’s member owned, nonprofit structure aligns with the HCUL mission. The company brings world-class technology and a 45-year history of payments leadership to our members,” said Dennis Tanimoto, President of the Hawaii Credit Union League (HCUL). “HCUL used an open process to evaluate payments partners and SHAZAM’s commitment to providing the latest technology, payments expertise and stellar customer service stood out.”

“The agreement continues SHAZAM’s commitment to supporting the states where the network operates, and Hawaii marks the 20th state to receive member support, said Paul Waltz, president and CEO. “This partnership cements SHAZAM’s commitment to using a portion of the money it earns in Hawaii to fund the education programs and professional development HCUL provides for its members.”
