Cornhusker Bank Facilitates Easy Banking Relationships in Omaha Market

Doing business with Cornhusker Bank in Omaha got easier in April of 2018. Cornhusker Bank opened a Licensed Production Office at 13340 California, in Omaha’s OMNE Building. The bank is leasing space in this comfortable, modern facility, which is just one block north of 132^nd and Dodge Street.

According to Allen Chaffee, Cornhusker Bank’s Omaha Market President, “This represents a great milestone and Cornhusker Bank looks forward to being able to continue building relationships with our current Omaha clients and the Greater Omaha community. Cornhusker Bank’s mission and “Hometown Heart” banking model focuses on doing life together with customers and helping them reach their financial goals.”   Allen can be contacted at 402-779-1420 for an appointment at the Omaha Office. If you have an existing relationship with another Cornhusker Bank associate and are interested in meeting at the Omaha office, please ask them about using the new office.

CardValet App Helps Manage Debit Card Accounts

The CardValet app is ideal to proactively manage Cornhusker Bank debit card accounts through your smart phones. Getting started is easy, simply download the CardValet app to your mobile device from the Apple or Android app store. Then customize your usage settings and alert preferences.

Features of CardValet

• Card usage controls: Spending limits can be established to allow transactions up to a certain dollar value and decline transactions when amounts exceed pre-defined thresholds. Transactions can also be monitored or controlled for specific merchant categories such as gas, hotel, travel, restaurants, groceries or electronic stores.

• Card on/off setting: When the card is “on,” transactions are allowed in accordance with each cardholder’s usage control settings. When the card is “off,” no purchases or withdrawals are approved until the card is turned back “on.” This control can be used to disable a lost or stolen card.

• Location-based controls: The My Location control can restrict transactions to merchants located within a certain range of each cardholder’s location, (using the phone’s GPS) or within pre-defined regions; transactions requested outside of the specified range can be declined.

• Interactive alerts: CardValet can send a real-time alert when a card is used, when a transaction is approved and exceeds any of the permitted use policies, or when a card transaction has been attempted but is declined.

Why One Day Without Shoes?

Cornhusker Bank’s One Day Without Shoes event for the benefit of the People’s City Mission has been a yearly event for the past eight years. The Bank invites businesses and organizations throughout Lincoln to participate by being collection sites for shoes, and/or walking with bank staff to help raise awareness of the need for footwear in our community. Records were broken this year, 2018, with over 36,613 pairs of shoes collected city-wide, over $8,800.00 in monetary funds donated and over 200 walkers.

Why does Cornhusker Bank believe in the One Day without Shoes event? The event is such a galvanizing event for local businesses, bank associates and for the clientele of the People’s City Mission. It takes only observing one adult getting what they describe as the “best pair of shoes in their whole life” or one little girl thrilled with that perfect pair of pink shoes that compels the bank to continue organizing the event. The event and cause provides a valuable service to our community. Cornhusker Bank loves Lincoln and wants to help make it the best it can be. It gives us a chance to open up that cause for participation by mutually like-minded businesses, schools, and other organizations and it allows our staff to interact with the public stopping by to donate shoes and display and experience the Cornhusker Bank culture of “Doing Life Together.”

Cornhusker Bank asks you to start considering participation to be a shoe collection site or to plan to join in the walk from the Cornhusker Bank Center to the People’s City Mission in April of 2019.
