Testimonials from our partners

Everybody's running to find a resource to get some level of NCUA coverage on deposits, so finding ModernFi was literally a gift. We were very fortunate to stumble across [ModernFi] and you've been very helpful for us as we look to extend coverage to our depositors here at Royal.

Mickey Noone

VP of Business Lending

Royal Credit Union

We've never had a tool or technology like ModernFi within the credit union system before. Deposit insurance is now important. [March 2023] was a wakeup call for folks. I look at deposit insurance like oxygen: you don't really realize it's there until it's gone.
