Let's bank on
each other.

Let’s bank on each other.
An arguably counter-intuitive message from a credit union, but we saw it as a brand promise A+ was especially built to deliver. After all, what’s more co-op than counting on one another?
Most consumers think of CUs as friendlier but less accessible, understandable, comprehensive and convenient than a bank. We highlighted A+’s local ease of doing business, while re-positioning their ‘teacher’s co-op’ origin story into a modern common sense approach to financial guidance. From there we re-branded an approachable, capable credit union that gets what people need financially.
