BenefisCU was honored with the “New CUSO of the Year” award as a testament to its dedication to enhancing the financial health and operational effectiveness of credit unions across the country.  

“This recognition underscores BenefisCU’s commitment to delivering industry-leading executive benefit plans and risk management solutions tailored specifically for credit unions, their members and communities, achieved through a robust partnership with TRISCENDNP,” said Alex Staron, CEO of BenefisCU. “Our approach not only streamlines operations but also ensures that profits generated from these services remain in the credit union ecosystem, fostering mutual growth.” 

BenefisCU offers advanced insurance solutions designed for credit unions, enabling them to provide executive benefits for top talent and risk management services for their members. Through a national collaboration with other credit unions, BenefisCU provides access to specialized, member-centric products and favorable carrier commission structures across various insurance lines.

With $33 million in current and guaranteed future revenue since inception and a 12.3% increase in net income year-over-year, BenefisCU is accelerating forward. Currently partnered with 14 credit unions and Dollar Associates, and powered by TRISCENDNP, BenefisCU is actively expanding its footprint and accepting a limited number of additional credit union partners to join its mission-driven model.
