Statewide FCU Selects Dolphin Debit

HOUSTON– Statewide FCU in Flowood, Miss. has signed on with Dolphin Debit, the full-service ATM management company.  "We had our own ATMs for probably 25 years, and we had come to look at them as a necessary evil, something we had to have because we have branches," said Paul Armstrong, General Manager of Statewide FCU. "I'm not a big fan of ATMs, and it was just a business I didn't want to be in anymore." The Dolphin Debit model – in which Dolphin owns and operates the ATMs and credit unions or banks just lease them – sounded very appealing, Armstrong said.
