Clean Energy Credit Union launches new website in partnership with PixelSpoke

ENGLEWOOD, CO (February 15, 2023)Clean Energy Credit Union and PixelSpoke are excited to announce the launch of Clean Energy Credit Union’s new website.

Clean Energy Credit Union is an online-only, federally chartered credit union serving members throughout the USA. Its mission is to promote clean energy, environmental stewardship, and cooperative enterprises through the financial services it provides to its members.

PixelSpoke is a B Corp marketing agency and worker-owned cooperative that specializes in web redesigns for credit unions. The redesign project aimed to: 1) Differentiate through design and storytelling, 2) Make a compelling case for prospects to join, and 3) Lay a strong digital foundation for Clean Energy to continue building on in years to come.

Differentiating through design and storytelling
With a wide range of new user-friendly layout options, the new website tells the Clean Energy story in an accessible and easily understandable way. The copy, with its warm and inclusive tone, aims to uplift and inspire. The visuals tell the Clean Energy story as much as the words — with authentic member and team photos, stylized illustration elements, a refined color palette, and prominent videos and testimonials, the site offers both an unique and intimate experience that stands out from other credit union websites.

Making a compelling case to join
Banking with Clean Energy Credit Union is not just about… well, banking. It’s about joining a movement. Through bold copy and eye-catching design elements, the website’s custom “Open an Account” page emphasizes both how Clean Energy’s passion for the environment sets it apart, but also how it offers “all the benefits you expect from a financial institution.” An impact calculator enables prospects to measure the pounds of carbon offset their deposit dollars could fund per year if they open an account.

Laying a strong digital foundation
Clean Energy Credit Union is an online-only financial institution, and as such, it’s critical to maintain a coherent, user-friendly digital presence that stays one step ahead of the curve. The website’s modern design, upgraded CMS, interactive tools, and seamless integrations all help to lay a strong foundation for further iterations and evolutions in years to come.

Nicole Burford, Clean Energy Credit Union’s Sr. Director of Marketing and Sustainability, says, “We couldn’t be happier with the new website. As an online-only credit union, it’s imperative that our website reflect who we are as an organization and communicate our mission. PixelSpoke was able to help us bring that vision to life by working with us to create a website that effectively educates visitors on who we are in a visually appealing way. “

The website is built using flexible WordPress templates that empower the Clean Energy marketing team to update rates, product pages, photos, blog, and other information as needed. Moving forward, Clean Energy and PixelSpoke look forward to continuing their partnership to expand access to the clean energy movement and support the financial goals of Clean Energy members.
