Reseda Summit 2026: Gary Brandt & Kevin Dawson (Members Mobile)
Members Mobile says it has fully launched its mobile services after starting the year with installations underway. The company is now live with two credit unions, MSUFCU in Michigan and SafeOne in California, and expects two more launches within the next two weeks.
The company describes itself as a nationwide premium 4G and 5G mobile network for the credit union community. It says its service is designed to be offered through credit unions to their members, with an average savings of about $500 a year.
A major part of the discussion focused on Members Mobile’s integration with MeridianLink . Through the app, users can complete the mobile sign-up process, port a phone number, open a checking account to become a credit union member, and fund that account within about five minutes. The company says this makes it both a mobile provider and a financial technology platform.
Brandt and Dawson also discussed why they return to Reseda Summit, saying the event supports portfolio companies and gives them visibility. They said the podcast format helps them share their message on equal footing.
On the fintech side, the company is already opening checking accounts through SafeOne and MeridianLink, and plans to connect with LoansPQ to support cross-selling of loans, auto refinances, credit cards, and debt consolidation products. The platform is open to any credit union member nationwide through its Plaid integration.
For credit unions that sign on, the platform should go live within four to six weeks. The agreement is described as a co-marketing arrangement in which both sides share commissions, while the company handles the platform and related services.
