Customer Success
There’s a reason we call our partner support program InfoCare.
Just as credit unions see their duty to members as caring for family, we strive to support our partners with that same level of commitment. Following cooperative principles, we recently coordinated two joint projects where—rather than our partners working individually with third-party suppliers—we negotiated on their behalf to secure group pricing. The result will be significant cost savings and the ability to provide enhanced services to their members through more affordable projects.
Another way we create value through collaboration is by leveraging the fact that all of our clients use the same core banking system. This means certification and testing done for one client can be applied with minimal additional effort for others, allowing everyone to benefit more quickly and efficiently. This is part of the Infonancial advantage.
This collaborative, caring approach also encourages our clients to share meaningful and insightful feedback when we develop services like InfoLend. Because they know we listen, they’re willing to tell us what they need in the “real world”—and that helps us design solutions that anticipate the needs of their lenders. This, in turn, helps our partners effectively help their members achieve their financial goals.
We may not be a credit union ourselves, but we hold ourselves to the same values of caring service and insightful principles of co-operation.
Partner Spotlight
L.I.U.N.A Credit Union
At Infonancial, we believe the strongest partnerships are built on a foundation of shared values. That is why we are incredibly proud of our collaboration with L.I.U.N.A. Credit Union.
The credit union now operates two branches in the Greater Toronto Area with the addition of their new branch in Vaughan. The branch is located in the new LIUNA Local 183 headquarters; part of a $177 million development aimed at serving union members and the local community.
They aren't just a credit union; they are a pillar of the community, offering accessible financial services to those who work hard to build our future. This dedication to putting members first is a value Infonancial deeply shares.
By combining LIUNA's real-world experience with Infonancial's technological innovation, we are building solutions that strengthen the credit union and, most importantly, empower its members to achieve their financial goals. We are excited to continue building the future together, grounded in the same foundation of trust and commitment that L.I.U.N.A Credit Union shares with its members every day.
What’s New at Infonancial?
Proud to be a "Proven Performer"! 🎉
We’re proud to announce that Infonancial Solutions has been named a “Proven Performer” in the VI50: Global Leaders in Mentorship and Remote Internships report, published recently by Virtual Internships. This recognition spotlights 50 organizations globally that consistently deliver structured, mentorship-driven internship programs.
The VI50 report isn’t just an award—it’s a data-backed blueprint for designing impactful internship experiences. Drawing from insights gathered from over 1,500 interns and 600+ host companies between November 2024 and June 2025, the report emphasizes four core principles of effective internships:
Intentional mentorship
Consistent engagement
Structured project design
Built-in feedback loops
At Infonancial, these are more than principles—they are our practice. Beginning in 2024, our internship program is deliberately structured to connect learners with meaningful projects, regular check-ins, and hands-on opportunities that drive real-world results. Many of our interns have turned into invaluable full-time contributors—like Software Developer, Nabeel Alabed and Digital Marketing Coordinator Laura Pontelli—highlighting the long-term impact of our investment in early talent.
