Instant Payments: A Credit Union Perspective
Recorded June 28th
With the FedNowSM Service launching at the end of July, instant payments are on the fast track to ubiquity. But before credit unions hop on the bullet train to support them, they must understand: How will credit unions be impacted? And is your credit union properly equipped to receive them?

Discover the latest on faster payments in the U.S., including updates on the RTP® network and the FedNowSM Service.

Key Questions to Ask About CUSOs
Recorded June 8, 2023.
For your credit union, it’s probably a matter of “when” not “if” when it comes to creating or partnering with a CUSO. Join Capstone Managing Director John Dearing and his guest, CUSO expert Brian Lauer, for a conversational, back-and-forth, interactive webinar as they discuss the right questions to ask (and the missteps to avoid), as you consider entering the CUSO marketplace.
What’s a Next-Gen CUSO?
Recorded March 31, 2022.
You know collaboration is the foundation of the credit union movement. In fact, according to recent research from Filene and Nymbus, credit unions involved in CUSOs simply perform better. Choosing a next-gen CUSO for growth, though, takes serious consideration. Join Filene’s Taylor Nelms, Dave Tucker from Curql Fund and Nymbus CUSO President John Janclaes as they walk through how to put the principles of cooperative finance into action by working with CUSOs in ways that resemble fintech partnerships. Learn how to apply this differentiating strategy to combat growing competition and shift from playing defense to going on offense.
TCH RTP Network vs. the FedNow Service: Is There a Wrong Choice?
Recorded March 29, 2022.
Credit unions have had to make the difficult decision of offering the benefits of real-time payments right away with either the TCH RTP® Network—or waiting for FedNowSM Service. With the FedNowSM Service on track to go live in 2023, much of the wait is over. So which one is better? Or should credit unions embrace both networks? Erika Baumann, Sr. Analyst for Aite Aite-Novarica, and Al Griffin, Product Manager at Alacriti, discusses how FedNowSM Service and the RTP Network should fit into your payments strategy.
Next-Generation CUSO: A New Innovation Model for Credit Unions to Thrive
Recorded June 24, 2022 with John Janclaes, Trish North and Brian Lauer
Amid global upheaval and pandemic-forced shutdowns, credit unions met member needs with digital experiences powered by technology built over the last decade. But digital alone is not a future-proof strategy. To thrive long-term will take leaning into foundational credit union strengths and fierce pursuit of continuous innovation. The result: dynamic personal experiences that keep members loyal no matter what lies ahead. Nymbus CUSO President John Janclaes, a longtime credit union advocate and operator, and Trish North, financial institution growth champion and Nymbus Chief Customer Officer, will join Brian Lauer, who (literally) wrote the book on CUSOs, to talk about how a new kind of CUSO will help credit unions confidently move forward—with crisis-level speed.
