Fidelity Bank Launches MANTL Loan Initiation System, Expanding Cooperation with Alkami
MANTL is accelerating the advancement of its lending business in the banking market. Headquartered in Pennsylvania, Fidelity Bank is modernizing consumer lending services by offering personal loans and vehicle loans through multiple channels.
Plano, Texas, November 5, 2026 / PRNewswire / -- Alkami Technology, a provider of digital sales and service platforms for financial institutions in the United States (Nasdaq ticker: ALKT, commonly referred to as “Alkami”), announced today that Fidelity Bank has been officially launched in less than three months since its inception. This initiative unifies the consumer loan application process across both physical and digital banking channels, providing borrowers and employees with a faster and more streamlined experience. Fidelity Bank has already enabled the initiation of personal loans and vehicle loans through MANTL.
As an existing customer of Alkami Digital Banking, Fidelity Bank expanded its partnership with Alkami by deploying MANTL Loan Origination to modernize its consumer lending business. When evaluating the new loan initiation system, the bank prioritized automation and operational efficiency, while also aiming to provide a cohesive online borrowing experience for the first time. By replacing the traditional systems that were disconnected from each other with MANTL Loan Origination, Fidelity Bank streamlined the underwriting, fraud prevention, and credit decision-making processes, ensuring that borrowers can enjoy a seamless lending experience regardless of where they apply.
Fidelity Bank President and CEO Daniel J. Santaniello stated: “MANTL brings a faster and more seamless lending experience, while still maintaining the personalized services that define Fidelity Bank. This investment has enhanced the customer experience and also improved our operational efficiency.”
Fidelity Bank, Executive Vice President and Chief Banking Officer, Ruth Turkington added: "When it comes to providing an excellent customer experience, speed is equal to service. By integrating our digital and offline lending experiences, we make it easier for customers to obtain financing, while also allowing our bank staff to focus on building relationships."
Alkami indicates that with the help of MANTL Loan Origination, Fidelity Bank can achieve automated decision-making and direct processing through configurable workflows, integrated authentication, and intelligent credit decisions, thereby reducing manual operations. These capabilities allow branch teams to spend more time building customer relationships rather than entering data; at the same time, they also enable the Bank Secrecy Act ( BSA ) and underwriting teams to work more efficiently and with greater confidence, ultimately speeding up the loan processing speed.
Alkami Chief Product and Technology Officer Benjamin Conant stated: "As more and more financial institutions seek to modernize consumer lending rather than continue to deal with the complexities of traditional systems, the implementation cases of Fidelity Bank reflect that MANTL Loan Origination is gaining momentum in the market at an accelerated pace. The ability to go live within a few months indicates that financial institutions with a proactive approach can quickly deploy modern lending platforms, providing a modern digital experience that is not common among regional and community-based financial institutions. This creates meaningful competitive differentiation in a market that is increasingly shaped by digital-first expectations."
