The story

Red Canoe Credit Union is a community credit union serving members in Washington and Oregon, offering a full suite of consumer and business banking, lending, and investment services. In 2025 the credit union made a significant digital leap, launching a new online/mobile banking platform and digital account-opening capability. It partners with third-party vendors (Total Merchant Concepts, BaZing, Alloy, CUNA Mutual) rather than building embedded finance infrastructure in-house, reflecting a typical community credit union model of vendor-augmented service delivery.
