Tioga State Bank (TSB) adds Spiral to empower its consumers and businesses to effortlessly support local nonprofits through their digital banking accounts and their everyday purchases.

Spiral, the award-winning Impact-as-a-Service™ platform for financial institutions, today announced a partnership with Tioga State Bank (TSB), a leading community bank with a 160-year legacy, nationally recognized for its innovative digital banking solutions and deep commitment to community empowerment.

Customers and businesses can create a tailored portfolio of causes, track their charitable impact, and receive a donation report for tax purposes.

"We're thrilled to offer innovative solutions that not only elevate how our customers engage with our financial solutions but also provide easy ways to positively impact local nonprofit causes," said Robert M. Fisher, President and CEO at TSB. "We're not just enhancing the digital experience — we're empowering our community to make a real difference they can feel good about."

By integrating with Spiral, TSB is driving awareness and donations to local nonprofits throughout the Southern Tier of New York and Northern Pennsylvania, directly from the bank’s customer base and spearheading positive change throughout their local communities.
