Client Story

Growing the Bank through Loyalty Rewards

Empowering Modern Woodmen Bank

Modern Woodmen Bank first began rewarding its customers in 2012. The bank initially collaborated with FIS to implement ScoreCard® Rewards to provide a points program for customers who opened a new checking, savings or credit card account and used it for at least six months. In 2015, the bank expanded its loyalty program to reward additional behaviors like the use of direct deposit and bill pay – and for referring a friend or using a new service themselves.
