Purdue Federal Credit Union signs with United Solutions CUSO Collection Services

Due to USC’s service oriented quality and expertise, Purdue FCU selected United Solutions CUSO as their collections provider.

TALLAHASSEE, FL (February 12, 2024)United Solutions Company (USC), a CUSO hosting core  processing and other services for credit unions, announced Purdue Federal Credit Union has  signed a contract to utilize USC’s Collection Services. Purdue Federal Credit Union has chosen  USC as their business partner because of their understanding of the distinctive challenges facing credit unions.  

United Solutions is excited to provide collections services to such a prestigious credit union as  Purdue Federal Credit Union,” states Jim Giacobbe, President and CEO of USC. “The  experienced team at United Solutions led by VP of Collections, Tony Neff, will work hard,  deliver results, and ensure the leadership team at Purdue is happy with their decision.”  

Purdue Federal Credit Union was founded as Purdue University Employees Credit Union in 1969  by a group of Purdue University employees. Put simply, they wanted a place where they, their  families and fellow employees could save and borrow money safely, confidentially, and at a fair  rate of interest. 

Over the years, the financial institution went through several name changes. It finally became  Purdue Federal Credit Union in 2010, shortly after acquiring Members United Federal Credit  Union. The new name was a true reflection of the membership base, which includes students,  faculty, staff and communities where Purdue University and its regional campuses operate. 

Headquartered in West Lafayette, Ind., Purdue Federal is a member-owned financial  cooperative with more than 100,000 members worldwide and assets nearly $1.9 billion. Its
