3 credit unions choose Corelation’s KeyStone core for its seamless integration and reputation within the community

SAN DIEGO, CA (October 16, 2023) — Homebase Federal Credit Union ($262 million assets; 17,227 members), US Community Credit Union ($296 million assets; 27,297 members), and Southwest Financial Federal Credit Union ($78 million assets; 8,893 members) have all chosen Corelation’s KeyStone as their new core processor. The decisions of the three credit unions to partner with Corelation stem from the compelling synergy between Corelation’s strategic partnerships and KeyStone’s exceptional seamless integration capabilities.

“We chose to partner with Corelation based on their stellar industry reputation, marked by leadership in acquiring new clients and positive feedback from existing ones, showcasing their dedication to service, support, and client relationships,” shared Clint Summers, President & CEO of Homebase Federal Credit Union. “KeyStone stood out with its proven track record of seamless integrations with third-party solutions, continuous relevant updates tailored to credit unions, and a steadfast focus on empowering clients to own their data and member relationships.”

Both Homebase Federal Credit Union and US Community Credit Union were impressed with Corelation’s culture and KeyStone’s open architecture.

“Two major factors drove our decision to choose KeyStone as our new core. First, the open nature of the system that allows us to bring the vendors of our choosing into our environment was critical,” said Nathan Brown, EVP/CFO of US Community Credit Union. “Culture was also a central theme throughout our core selection process. At each step of the process, Corelation’s culture stood out as a major differentiator. We are thrilled to be partnering with Corelation and excited about what the future holds!”

Like US Community Credit Union, Southwest Financial Federal Credit Union is enthusiastic about exploring the potential integrations and partnerships made possible by KeyStone.

“Our primary focus during the search for a new core was finding a solution with an open API that would enable us to collaborate with industry leaders and offer products and services our members need and expect. It quickly became evident that Corelation was the ideal partner for us,” shared President & CEO of Southwest Financial Credit Union Melanie Kennedy. “We are excited about the integration possibilities and partnerships that KeyStone can offer us. Additionally, several credit unions in our immediate vicinity have already transitioned to KeyStone or are in the process of doing so, and they have expressed satisfaction with the product and the level of support. Our conversion date can’t come fast enough!”

All three credit unions are scheduled to convert to KeyStone in 2024 and 2025.

“We feel privileged to extend a warm welcome to Homebase Federal Credit Union, US Community Credit Union, and Southwest Financial Federal Credit Union. We are eager to offer our unwavering support to these new partners as they embark on their KeyStone core journey,” expressed Corelation President Rob Landis. “Cultivating strong client relationships lies at the heart of our mission, and we are profoundly grateful for the newfound trust these new partners have placed in both our organization and KeyStone.”
