A Simpler Way to Bank—With a Few Helpful Updates

Bank News | April 24, 2026

We’ve made a few updates to your digital banking experience—designed to make everyday tasks easier, while keeping everything you already know and trust right where it should be.

A new way to quickly find your information

You may notice a new feature called Ask AI (also referred to as Transaction Assistant). It’s a simple tool that helps you find answers about your accounts—just by asking a question.

For example, you can ask things like:

  • “What did I spend on groceries last month?”
  • “Show me my recent transactions.”
  • “What’s my routing number?”

This feature is designed to save you time—but it’s important to know what it doesn’t do.

It only works within your account information and transaction history. It cannot provide financial advice, access other customers’ data, or go beyond the information already securely tied to your account.  

Your information remains protected, and the tool is built with strict safeguards to ensure it only accesses your data—and nothing more.  

As always, you’re in control. You can continue using digital banking exactly as you always have.

Small updates to the look and feel

You may notice a few subtle visual updates to the dashboard. These changes are designed to make things feel a bit cleaner and easier to navigate—but nothing about how your accounts work has changed.

More ways to personalize your view

You now have more flexibility to organize your accounts in a way that makes sense to you.

You can:

  • Group accounts by type or purpose
  • Create custom views
  • Choose how your accounts are displayed

These options are available through your display settings and are completely optional—your current setup will still work just fine.  

These updates are all about making digital banking more convenient—without changing what already works. If you have questions, our team is always here and happy to help.
