TBA offers all-new mobile app technology to enhance member experience

The Texas Bankers Association is pleased to announce the launch of the new TBA mobile app. Available to download for free on iOS and Android, the app offers simple and easy access to TBA-related events, news and more.

More than an events app, the TBA mobile app features a seamless user interface and easily accessible dashboards to mimic the TBA’s website — perfect for all members alike. The new platform improves the user experience, offers new features and allows members to stay informed on all things banking — wherever you are.

To complement the interactive experience, members can also stay up to date on open positions available through TBA’s job bank, grassroots action items, industry-related news including Texas Banking magazine, cybersecurity resources, endorsed partners and social media updates, to name a few.

My TBA Profile The new app provides instant access to your TBA member profile. Members can login with their TBA website password and view and edit their profile at the palm of their hands. In addition, users can look up associate members and banks in the new TBA directory — allowing members to stay connected 365 days of the year.

2021 Convention TBA trains more than 20,000 bankers annually. Members can register for select events through the all-new app including the largest state banking convention in the United States. With over 200 conferences, schools, seminars and webinars offered, users will be the first to receive newly added event information, available on the home screen.

From conferences to schools, government relations to other association events, members receive full access to resources for registered events and can browse speaker information, check out exhibitors and the exhibit hall floor plan, as well as have the opportunity to connect with other conference attendees with the in-app messaging system. Plus, for users who are on the go, the platform allows users to set reminders and receive alerts for select events, along with view, update and send notes on event sessions.

Take Action TBA’s advocacy efforts include state, federal, grassroots and regulatory agencies. With quick access to TBA’s grassroots action center, members can stay alert on key issues in Austin and Washington, learn who represents you at the state and federal levels, easily contact lawmakers, opt-in to receive advocacy emails and texts and more.

Cyber Resources The app allows members to stay alert and secure against the rise in cyberattacks with its cyber-specific section. Members can review TBA’s original content and leading cyber and fintech-oriented programs including useful resources such as an MS-ISAC toolkit, best practices, cybersecurity threats and more. Plus, users have access to the Texas Bankers ISAO which promotes information sharing and collaboration among community banks in Texas to help keep banks and their customers as safe as possible from cybersecurity crime.

The TBA Job Bank is the best source for locating qualified employees within the financial services industry. TBA created its complimentary job bank for job seekers interested in pursuing a career in the industry to connect with the leading employers.

Members can also access Texas Banking magazine, the official publication of the Texas Bankers Association, with the click of a button. The magazine features the latest industry news, as well as trends, legislative and regulatory developments, technology advancements, sales and marketing information and features that can help bankers compete more effectively and efficiently in the marketplace.

TBA Endorsed Partners Endorsed partner products and services that have been thoroughly vetted and reviewed by the TBASCO Board of Directors are also within reach. True partners to the TBA, these companies support TBA events and advocacy on behalf of banks across Texas and are available through the app’s endorsed partner feature.
