Tristate Collaborative Adds Rippleshot to Its Lineup of Shared Solutions for Credit Unions

Rippleshot partners with Tristate Collaborative, giving credit unions across four states a proactive way to catch fraud early.

ST. PAUL, MN, UNITED STATES, August 13, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Tristate Collaborative, the shared strength behind the independent credit union leagues of Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, and Wisconsin, has added Rippleshot to its lineup of shared solutions, giving credit unions across all four states access to valuable, proactive tools for detecting and stopping fraud before it reaches their members.

Formed by the Minnesota Credit Union Network, Montana's Credit Unions, and The Wisconsin Credit Union League, and later joined by the Nebraska Credit Union League, Tristate Collaborative pools resources across its member leagues so each can access best-in-class products and services without sacrificing local governance or advocacy. It's a model built on true cooperation among cooperatives.

“Fraud losses continue to climb across the industry, and Tristate Collaborative is committed to giving our member credit unions the tools to get ahead of that trend rather than absorb it. That's why we chose to partner with Rippleshot, whose Fraud Interceptor gives our members a proven way to detect and stop fraud earlier, without having to build that capability on their own.,” said Beth Ellis, President of Tristate Collaborative.

Through the partnership, credit unions across Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, and Wisconsin gain access to Rippleshot's Fraud Interceptor and Fraud Intelligence Collective, giving fraud teams a proactive way to catch threats early and a trusted network of peers spanning four states to lean on.

"What I've appreciated most working with Tristate is how much thought goes into making sure every league, and every credit union behind it, actually benefits from this kind of partnership. That care is what made this an easy yes, and we're excited to help their credit unions put a real dent in the fraud coming at them," said Nalani Brown, VP of Operations at Rippleshot.

Credit unions can start the conversation through their Tristate Collaborative representative or at rippleshot.com.
