Beem Credit Union, a newly established Canadian credit union, has joined forces with UK-based software developer VeriPark to enhance its digital capabilities.
Operating out of British Columbia, Beem Credit Union anticipates that this collaboration will position it as the leading “people-first, digital-first credit union in the province.”
Brian Harris, the president, and CEO of Beem Credit Union, views this partnership as a commitment to providing a digital experience that supports its members in achieving their individual financial wellness goals.
Established in 1998, VeriPark offers financial institutions a suite of products aimed at enhancing customer retention, cross-selling, and acquisition. These include branch automation, loan origination, customer engagement, and omni-channel delivery solutions.
Ozkan Erener, CEO of VeriPark, emphasizes the capabilities of the firm’s Intelligent Member Experience suite, built on Microsoft Dynamics and Azure. This suite empowers credit unions like Beem Credit Union to prioritize member experience in their digital transformation efforts.
Launched on January 1st by Gulf & Fraser and Interior Savings, Beem Credit Union aims to be the second-largest provincially regulated credit union in British Columbia. Currently serving over 160,000 members, it manages approximately $10 billion in total assets under administration.
Recently, Beem Credit Union appointed Sue Britton as its new chief innovation officer. Britton brings with her extensive experience, having previously served as CEO and founder of Firefly Growth, a fintech consultancy service.
