Financial Partners Credit Union Selects Wescom Resources Group Home Banking and Bill Pay Solutions

7/10/2006

WRG Products Launched in Conjunction with Credit Union's Data Conversion to Symitar System; WRG to Host FPCU's Applications

Wescom Resources Group (WRG) announced it has converted Financial Partners Credit Union (FPCU), one of the largest credit unions in the Los Angeles area, onto its Internet banking and bill pay platforms. In addition, FPCU has also selected and will be implementing the following WRG products: CU Integrator, Member Directed ACH and Alerts.

The WRG signing and technology installation for the $660 million credit union is another significant high point for Wescom Credit Union’s technology CUSO. In choosing WRG, FPCU joins two other large credit unions that have turned to WRG for their online banking solutions. $4.3 billion Alliant Credit Union purchased WRG’s Internet banking and bill pay applications, and $2 billion San Antonio Federal Credit Union (SACU) selected WRG to host its internet banking and bill pay platforms.

FPCU launched the WRG products in conjunction with its conversion to Symitar’s Episys system. The Credit Union’s Episys system is linked to the WRG corporate headquarters data center in Pasadena where FPCU’s applications are being hosted. FPCU chose WRG’s online services as a result of the technology CUSO’s experience in developing and implementing quality services and products for the credit union industry.

"Partnering with WRG has been an excellent opportunity for us to provide exceptional value and convenience to our members, while managing our resources," said Nader Moghaddam, president and CEO of Financial Partners Credit Union. "WRG’s professional staff and involved support allowed us to have a very successful launch. We value our relationship with WRG. Not only have they partnered with us in this latest venture but we also work with them on our ATM balancing activity. This is a shining example of what credit unions can do when we leverage each other’s resources and work together for a common cause."

"We are pleased that Financial Partners Credit Union placed their confidence in WRG when they were looking for an online banking solution," said Kevin Sarber, president of Wescom Resources Group. "FPCU is a great addition to our growing roster of credit union clients and is another example of a large credit union that chose WRG for its level of expertise and service."
