Beem Credit Union Announces Plans to Partner with VeriPark to Deliver British Columbia's Leading 'People-First, Digital-First' Credit Union
May 6, 2024
"The future of banking calls for us as leaders to challenge the status quo and leverage modern technology and innovation to drive new experiences, products, and services in our space,” said Brian Harris, President, and CEO of Beem Credit Union. “More and more Canadians are opening digital bank accounts and using digital channels to shop for financial products. As a trusted partner, we have a responsibility to deliver a digital experience that opens the door for our members to continue their journey towards achieving their personal definition of financial wellness.” Harris continued.
Beem Credit Union opened its doors to become a province wide credit union on January 1, 2024. Since then, the credit union has been focused on developing strategies to support its vision of a future where financial wellness can be achieved by all. With integration and business transformation as key priorities, searching for, and solidifying a partner in transforming the organization with world-class digital capabilities, was the critical first step. This search led to VeriPark.
“Beem Credit Union is rising to the top of the watch-list in financial services in Canada and we're proud to partner with Beem Credit Union as they carve a new path on their journey to become the first of its kind, ‘People-First, Digital-First’ credit union,” shared VeriPark CEO, Ozkan Erener. “Our Intelligent Member Experience suite, built on Microsoft Dynamics and Azure, empowers credit unions to put member experience at the core of their digital transformation.”
VeriPark believes that the credit union of the future is not only digital, but also customer experience driven. As financial institutions continue to evolve, our digital banking solutions serve as a testament to our dedication to providing best-in-class services that simplify the banking experience for both retail and business members and foster financial well-being for our customers.
Beem Credit Union’s aim to better serve its members by bringing together digital ease and human connection was a natural fit with VeriPark’s suite of service offerings. The partnership, once established, is poised to set a new standard in digital banking experiences for all British Columbians.
