Our Mobile Banking app is top notch.
On Wednesday, November 17th, Innovations was presented with a National Award for our Mobile Banking app. We received the highest approval rating from users across the country!
If you're not using the Innovations Mobile Banking app yet, now would be the perfect time to see what all the excitement is about.
Your vehicle search starts and ends here.
Thanks to technology, we can virtually do anything now—including buying a car. With our new Find a Vehicle service, just enter details of the car or truck you’re interested in and you’ll get a listing of all available vehicles that match these criteria. Each listing will show the price, odometer reading, location and how long the vehicle has been listed. Other benefits and features include:
- Virtual Test Drives
- A Price Curve tool that lets you know if the listing is fairly priced
- The Find a Better Price tool that will search for better deals on similar vehicles
- Free CARFAX™ reports
- A free myEZ Car Care Membership for members with a vehicle financed through Innovations
- A 90-Day Trial Subscription of SiriusXM for members with a vehicle financed through Innovations
- And so much more!
Don’t forget to get pre-approved for an Auto Loan with us before you make a purchasing decision.
Members with Vehicles Financed by Innovations:
Starting the week of December 6th, you will begin receiving welcome emails from MyEZ Car Care Auto Service & Travel Network and SiriusXM™. Both emails will contain information about these new benefits and an activation code to get started. So be on the lookout!
Skip through the holidays.
Keeping an eye on your income and expenses, especially during the holidays, can seem like a full-time job. Take a break this upcoming holiday season with our Skip-A-Payment* program. For a low fee of just $25, you can skip a qualified Innovations loan payment in November, December or January, to have extra money on hand for gift shopping, travel expenses, or to put toward other important expenses.
Get started today with our Skip-A-Payment* program. If you have questions or need assistance, give us a call at 850.249.1149 or 800.261.6272.
*Skip-A-Payment does not apply to home equity or mortgage loans, mobile home loans, workout loans, business loans or student loans. Offer is subject to approval and all accounts must be current to qualify. Only one month’s payment per loan during the months of November, December or January is eligible to be skipped. There is a $25 total service charge per membership for the loan payment(s) skipped and will extend the term of each loan by one month. A loan’s first payment is not eligible to be skipped. If you choose to skip a payment, interest will continue to accrue on your loan during the skipped month. Members who have purchased GAP coverage are responsible for skipped payment(s) in the event of a claim deficiency as stated in the GAP waiver addendum.
Mark your calendar.
Our 70th Annual Meeting and election is being held on March 22, 2022 at the Thomas Drive branch. Join us as we celebrate seven decades of service focused on quality member experience.
