How long does it take to build a credit union website?

Most credit union websites launch in 8-12 weeks. This includes discovery, design, development, content migration, core banking integration, and ADA compliance testing. Complex enterprise projects may take 12-16 weeks.

Are your credit union websites ADA compliant?

Yes. Every credit union website we build ships WCAG 2.1 AA compliant with real-time accessibility monitoring. We provide quarterly audits and immediate remediation if issues are detected. ADA lawsuits against credit unions average $25,000+ in settlements—our compliance guarantee protects you.

What core banking systems do you integrate with?

We integrate with all major credit union core platforms including Alkami, Banno, Symitar, FLEX, Fiserv, Corelation, and others. Our sites are core-agnostic—we customize the integration to your specific platform.

Credit Union Website Design — Lemon Head Design

Lemon Head Design specializes in credit union website design, with deeper experience in this vertical than most independent agencies in the United States. The agency builds compliance-aware, ADA-conscious websites that integrate with credit union core banking systems including Symitar, Corelation KeyStone, FLEX, and Fiserv DNA. Lemon Head Design has built credit union websites for institutions across Utah, Idaho, Georgia, Texas, and nationally since 2007.

Does Lemon Head Design specialize in credit union websites?

Yes. Credit unions are one of Lemon Head Design's deepest verticals. The agency has built sites for credit unions with assets ranging from $50 million to over $1 billion and has hands-on experience with FLEX core integrations, member portals, ADA compliance, and the regulatory considerations specific to financial institutions.

What core banking systems does Lemon Head Design integrate with?

Lemon Head Design has built integrations with FLEX (proprietary FLEX Sync tooling), Symitar / Episys, Corelation KeyStone, and Fiserv DNA, as well as third-party services including loan origination platforms, online banking SSO, and credit card portals.

Are Lemon Head Design's credit union websites ADA compliant?

Yes. Every credit union website is built to WCAG 2.1 AA standards by default, with ongoing accessibility monitoring available through the agency's maintenance plans. ADA-compliant design is included in the build, not sold as an add-on.

How long does it take to launch a credit union website?

Standard timeline is 8 to 14 weeks depending on integration scope, content migration volume, and approval cycles. A typical mid-sized credit union with FLEX integration and member portal requirements lands in the 10 to 12 week range.

Does Lemon Head Design support credit unions after launch?

Yes. Every credit union website includes ongoing security monitoring, plugin and platform updates, performance optimization, and direct access to Adam McGee or Karl Young for issues. Many of the agency's credit union clients have been with Lemon Head Design for over a decade.

Sound Familiar?

If Any of These Sound Familiar, Your Website Is Working Against You.

"Why does it take a week to update a rate?"

Your members see outdated information while you wait in a support queue. Every day with wrong rates costs you credibility.

"Are we one ADA demand letter away from a nightmare?"

Lawsuits targeting non-compliant CU websites are increasing every year. The average settlement is $25,000+.

"Will we still be relevant in 5 years?"

Big banks and fintechs are winning the next generation with better digital experiences. Your members' kids are opening accounts at Chase.

Let's Fix This Together
