03/13/2023: Why You Need a Modern Browser for our website
Have you ever seen a website that looked weird or didn’t work right? Maybe some things were missing or broken. That might be because you were using an old or outdated browser. In this post, we’ll tell you what a browser is and why you need an up-to-date one for our credit union website.
What is a Browser?
A browser is a program that lets you see and use websites on your computer, phone, or tablet. Some examples of browsers are Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Opera. These are all different programs that do the same thing: show you websites.
But not all browsers are the same. For many years, Internet Explorer was the browsing standard for personal computers. However, around June of 2022, Microsoft stopped supporting Internet Explorer. Many websites, including Members First Credit Union, no longer support Internet Explorer for online banking activities.
Why You Need a Modern Browser
You need a modern browser for our credit union website because we want to give you the best service possible. We use the latest code to make our website modern and easy to use. We also use it to keep your banking information safe and secure.
But some old browsers like Internet Explorer can’t read our site well. They may not show our website correctly or let you do everything you need to do. They may also have bugs or security problems that can make your computer slow or unsafe.
That’s why we ask you to use one of these browsers whenever you visit our credit union website: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Opera. These browsers are up-to-date and support most of the latest code that we use. They can also help you browse faster, safer, and more smoothly.
How to Get a New Browser
Getting a new browser is easy and fast. Most browsers can update themselves automatically when there is an updated version available. You can also check for updates yourself by going to your browser’s settings or help menu and looking for something like “About”, “Update”, or “Check for updates”. If there is an updated version available, you can download and install it by following the instructions on your screen.
Some of these browsers are free to download and use: Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Opera. You can choose one of them based on your preference or device type. We recommend using one of these browsers whenever possible.
TL;DR
A browser is a program that lets you see and use websites on your device. You need an up-to-date browser for our credit union website because we want to give you the best service possible and keep your banking information safe. By using a modern browser, you can also enjoy a better browsing experience.
