Greenlight®, the award-winning money and safety app for families, today announced it has surpassed 100 credit union partners nationwide through its Greenlight for Credit Unions program. The milestone reflects growing demand from financial institutions looking to deepen relationships with families and provide tools that support financial wellness across generations.
Greenlight established Greenlight Financial CUSO in 2023 to build mission-aligned partnerships that expand access to family finance and financial education solutions. Today, millions of credit union members receive free access to Greenlight’s award-winning family finance app, helping parents teach kids about money and build stronger financial habits across generations.
The announcement comes at a pivotal time for the industry, as credit unions face increasing pressure to attract younger households while competing with national banks and fintechs for family banking relationships. Greenlight’s average parent user is 44 years old, helping partners lower average member age and establish earlier financial connections with families.
“Orsa is proud to have been Greenlight’s first credit union partner,” said Tansley Stearns, President and CEO of Orsa Credit Union. “Learning happens by doing, and doing builds confidence. That’s true for kids. It’s also true for parents who may never have had the opportunity to build those skills themselves. Greenlight puts real financial tools in the hands of families, creating moments of learning, conversation, and growth around money. It equips the next generation with lifelong financial skills while giving parents the confidence to guide the journey. The families we invest in today will shape Michigan’s future tomorrow. That’s exactly the kind of investment Orsa was built to make.”
In a recent survey of participating credit union members, 77% said the Greenlight offering made them more likely to stay with their credit union, while 79% said it increased their likelihood to recommend their institution to others*.
“At Greenlight, we launched our CUSO and dedicated Credit Union solutions because of a shared mission to provide members and their communities with the tools to build a strong financial foundation,” said Matt Wolf, Chief Commercial Officer at Greenlight. “Surpassing 100 credit union partners is more than a milestone for us, it’s proof that financial institutions are investing in the next generation of members and looking for meaningful ways to support families at every stage of life. We’re proud to help make that possible.”
Greenlight continues to expand its family banking offerings for financial institutions, including tools focused on financial literacy and family safety. Dozens of credit unions have also recently expanded their distribution of services by providing Greenlight’s best in class elder fraud protection service, Family Shield, to their members.
