HOUSTON - BancorpSouth and Pulse EFT Association have strengthened and expanded their affiliation through an exclusive, long-term agreement. As sole PIN debit network provider for BancorpSouth, PULSE will provide access to electronic funds-transfer services for the bank's more than 325,000 debit cardholders in Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee and Texas.
"We are honored to be selected by BancorpSouth as its exclusive choice for PIN debit network services," said Leah Henderson, Pulse executive vice president. "PULSE recognizes the importance of high-quality EFT services to participating financial institutions and their account holders. We are pleased to be able to serve all of BancorpSouth's debit card customers through this expanded relationship."
BancorpSouth is a $13 billion financial holding company with 290 commercial banking, mortgage, insurance, trust and broker/dealer locations. In addition to ATM and PIN debit network services, PULSE also provides the bank with gateway access to other networks.
Reconfirming the value they were receiving from Pulse, BancorpSouth First vice president Keith Mansfield said the new long-term agreement was mutually beneficial.
