Accelerating Deposit & Loan Growth
At Capitol Credit Union of Texas

Facing the need to expand beyond an aging membership and attract younger, non-blue collar members, Capitol Credit Union of Texas partnered with Cotribute to implement a Digital Account Origination and Decision Intelligence-based system, to achieve 59% increase in new membership, an average of $10,000 in new deposits per new member and a 70% reduction in employee processing time. Within 90 days, the digital channel became the #1 channel generating more new accounts than all the branches.
