The Arkansas League Service Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Credit Union Resources Inc. (Resources), announced the signing of an agreement with SIGNiX to be the exclusive provider endorsed for their credit union community in Arkansas. SIGNiX is the leading provider of true digital signatures online, and is based in Chattanooga.

“Arkansas credit union members have been seeking a way to eliminate the extra paperwork and cost caused by the recent Regulation Z changes for closed-end loans. We recognized that electronic signatures could significantly reduce the burden on our members, but we wanted to choose a vendor that didn’t force us to compromise on security or convenience,” said Tom Hodge, SVP, Resources. “Many credit unions have already had positive experiences with SIGNiX’s service. We chose SIGNiX in August based on these recommendations, our technical due diligence, and our confidence in their easy-to-use, standards-based digital signature service. Now credit unions in the ‘Natural State’ can take advantage of this powerful capability.”

SIGNiX combines the speed and convenience of lightweight e-signature solutions with the assurance of true digital signatures to create an intuitive online experience that meets the needs of credit unions for executing trusted, long-term member agreements and contracts. SIGNiX applies a standards-based digital signature for each and every signature and initial on a signed document, providing trust that the document didn’t change from the first signature to the last. SIGNiX digital signatures also lower risk by offering a future-proof document of record that can be verified independently of the service. As a result, users don’t need to check back with SIGNiX just to verify individual signatures and the integrity of an executed transaction, eliminating the vendor lock-in demanded by other e-signature providers.

“We are very excited to expand the partnership with Resources and the League Service Corporation of Arkansas. Technology is a critical competitive advantage for credit unions, and SIGNiX has served credit unions nationally for more than five years, both directly and in partnership with leading credit union vendors to deliver integrated solutions,” said Jay Jumper, CEO of SIGNiX. “Our combination of ease-of-use with secure digital signatures means that our customers can not only benefit from quicker revenue and better customer relationships, but they can also trust that their signed documents and agreements will stand the test of time.”

The SIGNiX product and digital signatures were introduced to Arkansas Credit Union League members at the League’s Manager’s Roundtable in September with continuing information provided through a series of educational articles and white papers. Credit unions interested in learning more about SIGNiX are encouraged to contact Andy Golden, Business Development Manager: agolden@signix.com or 423 305-7048.
