Roundup: Credit Union Client Stories

May 10, 2021

Credit Unions love working with Chimney because of the focus on improving the member experience. The Chimney calculator designs look the best so members are able to easily find the answers they're looking for. On top of the design, their calculators are the only ones designed to help with both SEO and increasing applications on new websites so marketers are love that they're able to show results when they launch new websites.

Here are just a few examples of our work with Credit Unions around the country.

“Before Chimney, I would get emails from customer care and member services saying our calculators weren’t working. So I made it a top priority. I did a lot of research on different calculator companies, but ultimately chose Chimney because I really wanted to invest in something that would help us stand out as a brand in the credit union landscape”
