Redefining Commercial Agility and Personalized Engagement with the Spring 2026 Digital Banking Platform Release

The Spring 2026 Digital Banking Platform Release is designed to bridge the gap between secure service and sophisticated technology (tech) partnership. This quarter, we are introducing significant advancements in business and commercial money movement, a modernized retail wire experience, and powerful new ways to drive account holder loyalty through the Alkami Data & Marketing Solution.

The New Standard for Business & Commercial Banking

Winning in the modern business and commercial banking market requires moving beyond retail-plus features. This release focuses on providing business users with the speed and granular control they need to manage liquidity effectively.

Commercial Dashboard Minimum Viable Product (MVP)

We are thrilled to debut the Commercial Dashboard MVP, which features a sophisticated, modular design engineered to help business users prioritize their most critical financial tasks. This streamlined interface includes a Quick Actions Module that enables users to initiate high-frequency transactions, such as wires, ACH, and Bill Pay, directly from the home screen, as well as a Reports Module that provides an essential at-a-glance view of daily cash positions and reconciliation data. By centralizing these high-value workflows, the commercial dashboard ensures business users can maintain total oversight of their liquidity without the need to navigate through complex menus, significantly increasing operational efficiency.

Advanced Wire & Payment Capabilities

We continue to modernize the engine room of our Business & Commercial Banking Platform with enhancements to money movement designed to drive precision and security. This release introduces Recurring Wires and Wire Templates, which eliminate the friction of repetitive data entry and significantly reduce the risk of manual errors for frequent transactions. For institutions supporting international commerce, we have launched real-time retail and business Foreign Exchange (FX) Wires, offering the transparency and speed necessary for global business. Furthermore, our updates to Positive Pay & ACH Reporting include streamlined stop payments management and reporting tools, providing businesses with a more robust defense against unauthorized automated clearing house (ACH) activity and ensuring total control over their outbound cash flow.

Personalization at Scale: Alkami Engage & Data Insights

Data is only as valuable as the action it inspires. This release focuses on turning account holder behavior into concrete opportunities for growth, moving beyond passive observation to active engagement. By leveraging real-time insights, financial institutions can reduce digital friction, accelerate product adoption, and deliver the hyper-personalized experience today’s consumers expect.

Introducing Alkami Engage

A standout of the Spring release, Alkami Engage allows financial institutions to observe in-application (app) behavior and deploy real-time, contextual guidance. Whether it’s walking a user through their first mobile deposit or highlighting a new security feature, Alkami Engage ensures your digital channel is constantly coaching and converting.

Data & Marketing: Financial Fresh Start

To support account holders in their financial wellness journey, we’ve launched Financial Fresh Start Out-of-the-Box Campaigns. Out-of-the-box campaigns are pre-configured, data-driven campaigns that allow marketing teams to quickly deploy relevant offers to account holders looking to reset their financial habits, positioning your brand as a helpful partner.

NextGen Transaction Stream

Alkami’s NextGen Transaction Stream is a powerful expansion of the Alkami Pplatform’s extensibility, designed to provide a more seamless flow of data directly from a financial institution’s core. Unlike third-party data aggregators, this enhancement creates a secure, direct bridge to the technical ecosystem, so that financial institutions can surface transaction data without the need for manual core lookups or fragmented administrative workflows. By streamlining how recurring payments and transaction details are presented, the NextGen Transaction Stream helps account holders easily identify and manage their financial footprint, effectively solving subscription fatigue. This direct-from-core approach ensures that your institution remains the primary hub for your account holders’ financial lives, driving loyalty through a more transparent and cohesive digital experience.

Optimizing the Digital Banking Experience

We’ve refined the administrative platform to give account holders more autonomy while simultaneously simplifying the back-office burden for financial institution staff. With the introduction of Account Groups, account holders can now better organize their financial picture using enhanced Account Actions and Account Management tools, which support custom grouping and significantly simplified navigation across their portfolio. This focus on intuitive design extends to a complete Retail Wires User Experience (UX) Redesign, which overhauls the domestic fund transfer workflow to be more seamless than ever before. Additionally, the new Self-Service Maintenance Page provides real-time transparency to account holders during scheduled updates, proactively managing expectations and drastically reducing call center volume during system windows.

Accelerating Conversion Velocity

Growth starts at the first touchpoint, and that experience often determines whether an applicant becomes a long-term account holder. Our latest updates to MANTL Origination nboarding & OnboardingAccount Opening are designed to eliminate friction at the point of entry, allowing financial institutions to capture more deposits and loan applications with less manual intervention. This is achieved through new features like Bulk Share Opening & Product Bundles, which streamline the account opening process by allowing account holders to open multiple shares or bundled products in a single application. Additionally, we have introduced Variable PDFs & Loan Approval Authorities, providing new back-office controls that allow for more flexible documentation and clearer hierarchies for loan approvals, significantly accelerating time-to-fund and improving the overall applicant experience.

Proactive Risk Management: Balancing Security and Service

As fraud tactics become more sophisticated, the response must become more precise. This release includes Locked User Enhancements, allowing financial institution staff to manage investigations with surgical precision by locking specific high-risk actions without completely cutting off an account holder’s ability to view their data. By moving away from all-or-nothing security measures, financial institutions can strike the perfect balance between proactive risk mitigation and a seamless user experience, neutralizing threats in real-time while reducing the friction typically associated with total account lockouts.

Expanding the Ecosystem: New Elements Partners

The Alkami Elements Partner Program is built for choice and ease, providing financial institutions with agile, cost-effective access to a broad ecosystem of fintech innovators. Financial institutions can quickly deploy specialized tools to meet digital demand without the heavy lift of custom engineering. This quarter, we are proud to announce three new partners:

• Nuuvia: To help financial institutions capture the next generation of account holders, Nuuvia offers a white-labeled youth and family money-management experience. By embedding these tools directly into Alkami, institutions can build lifelong household relationships and keep teen card spend in-house.
• ScribeUp: Addressing the rise of subscription fatigue, ScribeUp provides an embedded subscription and recurring bill manager. Account holders can see, cancel, and optimize their monthly bills in one place, which drives daily app engagement and reinforces your card as the primary payment method.
• InvestiFi: To combat deposit attrition to outside brokerages, InvestiFi enables self-directed investing, including fractional shares and crypto, within the Alkami Digital Banking Platform. This integration surfaces investment balances alongside traditional accounts, ensuring your institution remains the central hub for your account holders.
