“The Federal Reserve raised interest rates several times over the last 12 months, which has prompted more consumers to search for the products with the best returns. Searches for terms like ‘savings accounts’ and ‘CD rates’ have peaked higher than they’ve been in five years, according to Google Trends data,” said Matthew Covi, co-founder and CEO of Chimney. “Our team is proud to give our credit union clients a suite of interactive digital tools to help members find the right product for their needs and take the first step towards opening a new account. This year, Chimney’s tools have driven over 75,000 consumers to loan and deposit account applications. Members receive a superior digital experience that’s personalized for them, and credit unions benefit from steady deposit growth at a critical time, ensuring these valuable institutions can continue serving their local communities long term.”
