Klukken further added that “We’re excited about this relationship and look forward to offering a new, seamlessly integrated technology experience to even more banks and credit unions.”The collaboration is set to accelerate this summer, with USB leveraging Fiserv’s innovative, integrated technology infrastructure and aiming for full conversion of the portfolio, expected by the end of 2025. Fiserv will provide ongoing support, training, and engagement while bringing new financial institutions into Credit Choice.
