WVU Credit Union evaluated its card processing agreements to ensure they reflected current market pricing – and uncovered significant untapped value. With ADVANTAGE’s support, the credit union improved contract terms, secured new incentives, and strengthened its financial position without changing vendors or disrupting operations.

The outcome: $624K+ in total incentives, a new revenue stream through a Mastercard agreement, and clearer cost structures to support long-term planning – all achieved with minimal internal resources.
