Case Study: Inspire Federal Credit Union achieves rapid digital transformation and measurable growth with Nymbus

Credit Union Transformation Requires the Right Fintech Partner

Inspire Federal Credit Union, a community institution serving over 14,000 members with more than $225M in assets, faced an inflexible legacy core that slowed account openings, ACH processing and digital growth. To modernize quickly and compete with larger regional banks, Inspire chose Nymbus and its SmartCore, SmartDigital and SmartPayments solutions as a single, cloud‑based fintech partner.

Nymbus delivered an end‑to‑end core, internet/mobile banking and payments migration (go‑live March 2019), consolidating 15 third‑party vendors and unifying product and data streams. The implementation cut ACH times from hours to minutes, enabled 100% remote operations during COVID‑19, and drove measurable first‑year gains—+32% business & consumer checking, +16% retail & commercial loans, +15% productivity/efficiency and +14% total assets.
