Fibre Federal Credit Union Web Design Case Study

Fibre Federal Credit Union was founded in 1937. Sixty-three employees of Longview Fibre Company deposited a combined $315 for the purpose of making affordable loans available to Credit Union members. Over the decades they have grown to become one of the Lower Columbia Region’s largest credit unions. Today they serve anyone who lives, works, worships, goes to school or regularly conducts business in five counties which include Cowlitz, Wahkiakum, Pacific, Columbia and Clatsop counties.

Challenges

In 2012, Fibre Federal Credit Union knew it was time put their website to work! User friendly, interactive, modern, and easy to navigate were features at the top of the priority list for a new website solution that would turn their website into as great of an impression as visiting one of their 10 locations.

Solutions

Early in the project, the Fibre website team shared three little words that would become the theme for the entire website design and development project: Banking Made Easy. Pages of research couldn’t have described the goal for their website any better. After all, why wouldn’t every financial institution want to be a valuable resource for members and potential members?

Mobile responsive layouts were designed to focusing on clear website navigation, calls to action, and quick links without overly cluttering each web page. Including an online banking login in the header of website made virtual banking intuitive for users. No need to scroll to the top and bottom or hit the back button five times to find that little button you need to log in to your account! To complete Fibre’s strategy for “Banking Made Easy”, inPower CMS™ was then installed to make it effortless for Fibre website administrators to keep content fresh and to continue to add new services and helpful tools such as loan and savings calculators through inPower’s intuitive WYSIWYG editor!
