Seaboard FCU Selects Synergent for Core Conversion

PORTLAND, ME. — Seaboard FCU here has selected Synergent for its core processing needs.

The $116 million-asset credit union chose Synergent's Episys core solution because of its record of successful conversions, said Seaboard president and CEO Kyle Casburn. It already utilizes Synergent services for ATM and debit cards, bill pay, check processing and more.

"We will have the peace of mind knowing that Synergent has Seaboard's best interest at heart and will work diligently to meet our needs," he said in a statement, calling the core processor "a partner in the truest sense of what the credit union movement is about."

John Murphy, Synergent president and CEO, said the "under-one-roof" approach SFCU has taken is an increasing trend among CUs today, focusing on key product offerings for institutions.

"We want the credit unions that we partner with to view Synergent as an extension of their staff, and we are excited to work with Seaboard FCU's staff in this enhanced role," said Murphy.

Seaboard's core conversion is set for May 1, 2016.
