Bank of Newman Grove Selects Goldleaf’s Web Design and Hosting Solution

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Goldleaf Financial Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ:GFSI), a provider of integrated technology-based solutions designed to improve the performance of financial institutions, today announced that Newman Grove, Nebraska-based Bank of Newman Grove has selected Goldleaf as its partner for Web design and hosting.

Bank of Newman Grove had been looking for the opportunity to offer online banking. As a rural community bank, executives were eager to broaden their existing footprint, while also enhancing the bank’s services to be more attractive and convenient to both current and prospective customers. Bank executives decided to grow the online channel to enable customers to bank at their convenience.

Jeff Gerhart, president of Bank of Newman’s Grove, commented, “It’s increasingly vital for banks today to have a strong Web presence. As online adoption grows, being able to have a comprehensive Web site is becoming a differentiator between institutions. As Goldleaf is an ICBA preferred service provider, we knew the company would deliver a superior Web site experience. Every institution with which we spoke gave Goldleaf high marks, and its sales staff did an excellent job of cultivating the relationship. Goldleaf has been a great partner, making it a simple and seamless process.”

In addition to the Web design and hosting, Bank of Newman Grove also selected Goldleaf’s security package, which includes SSL and Pharming Shield. According to Gerhart, it was critical to protect the integrity of customer data. As regulators focus more heavily on compliance and fraud, having the highest measure of security was another criteria that made the Goldleaf Web solution stand apart from others.

“Web and security have been two areas of our business that have rapidly grown in the past few months,” said Lynn Boggs, CEO of Goldleaf. “Our products and services are designed to enable our clients to focus on higher level strategies, implementing solutions that ultimately help them acquire more deposits and prevent competitive encroachment. We believe in taking an active role in contributing to the success of our clients, and our comprehensive services are designed to improve efficiencies, increase profitability and support the convergence of payments from multiple points of presentment.”
