RALEIGH, N.C. – Constellation Digital Partners is reporting is has reached a new milestone with its 100thdevelopment partner.
The 100th partner has joined as credit unions prepare to go live with Constellation, which said it will offer a vast array of services.
“The more registered development partners there are on the platform, the more activity there is surrounding active projects and services being built,” the company said.
According to the CUSO, the Constellation Digital Platform allows development partners to create new services, test them and ultimately submit them for certification upon completion.
“Multiple developers can be working simultaneously on the platform to deliver solutions to credit unions. Constellation has formed very solid, collaborative partnerships among fintech partners and credit unions,” Constellation said.
There are more than 250 individual developers working on projects within the developer portal to provide a wide array of additional services to credit unions, and eventually, credit union members, the CUSO added.
“Our goal is to continue building out our development partnerships, while we also focus on supporting developers that are actively developing services within the platform,” said Constellation Developer Evangelist Daryl Thornton. “What’s amazing about the Constellation platform is that we have development efforts coming from both our fintech partners, as well as credit unions that know firsthand what members want and need from a digital banking standpoint.”
‘Impactful Experience’
Added Marc Miller, CEO of WalletFi, which is one of the partner companies, "As one of the first fintech partners on the platform, it has been an impactful experience to collaborate with the Constellation team and its credit union owners to build the next generation platform for digital banking. Constellation invests heavily in fintech partnerships, pushing aside the traditional customer/vendor approach historically seen in financial services.”
In addition to the Constellation digital banking services, there are currently an additional 20 certified services active on the platform with many more in the pipeline, Constellation said, adding its patented secure marketplace enables credit unions to engage members in a way that’s never been possible before, powered by multiple providers through a single consolidated member application.
‘Amazing Milestone’
“It is an amazing milestone for us to hit 100 development partners and counting, especially as we have many credit unions preparing to go live in 2020. The services that our development partners are building will enhance every credit union member’s digital experience and we’re proud to be the catalyst for that,” said Constellation CEO and Founder Kris Kovacs. “This is such an exciting demonstration of the power of a truly open digital ecosystem that supports fintechs and credit unions alike.”
