SPE Federal Credit Union in State College, PA recently converted to CU*BASE, the core data processing system of CU*Answers, a West Michigan-based CUSO. 10,624 members were converted from Fiserv Advantage™. SPE FCU becomes the sixth and final credit union participant of CUSO rkGoBig to convert to the CU*BASE platform.

rkGoBig is comprised of six credit unions in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Washington DC with a common goal of reducing expenses through synchronized operations while maintaining the unique identity of each CU. The CUSO currently serves over 65,000 members and $560 million in combined assets. “As part of our global back office convergence, one of our first steps was to identify a common core platform,” said Peter Barnard, rkGoBig CEO. “CU*Answers just gets it. CU*Answers’ shared credit union-owned platforms, intelligently and inexpensively deployed, allow rkGoBig to make real the vision of a new model.”
