Wave Federal Credit Union Selects DataSafe System from United Solutions CUSO

January 28, 2020

January 2020 – Tallahassee, FL – United Solutions Company (USC), a technology CUSO hosting core processing and other tech services for credit unions, is announcing that Wave Federal Credit Union (Wave FCU) has signed a seven-year agreement and will migrate to the DataSafe Core Data Processing System. Wave FCU has partnered with USC due to their variety of IT solutions built around credit union needs and USC’s proven client care.

 “United Solutions is excited to provide Wave Federal Credit Union with our core data processing package” stated Jim Giacobbe.  “I have known Paul Archambault and David Dupere for many years, and it will seem like old times working together again. The team at Wave Federal Credit Union is strong with great leadership.  Everyone at United Solutions is looking forward to helping Wave FCU continue to grow and be successful.”

Currently led by Paul Archambault, Wave FCU is located in Warwick, Rhode Island and was originally established 81 years ago as the Narragansett Electric Employees Federal Credit Union. From 2003 through 2011, Wave FCU merged with three different credit unions to become what is Wave FCU today. Wave FCU is a financially strong, community-chartered institution with almost 8,000 members, $115 million in assets, and a commitment to personal service. They offer a complete range of products including online banking, digital wallet, financial planning, and surcharge-free ATM access.

 “We are looking forward to partnering with United Solutions to enhance our technology initiatives to better empower our members financially.  USC’s ability to listen to our needs will help us to attain our goals and better serve our members now and into the future,”  stated Paul Archambault, President/CEO of Wave FCU.

United Solutions has been hosting the Fiserv DataSafe Core Data Processing System since the CUSO’s inception in 1983. The Fiserv DataSafe System provides easy-to-use, browser-based technology that is attractive, user-friendly, and feature-rich. The member data is stored in an object-oriented relational database incorporating the latest technology such as .NET, AJAX, SOAP, and more. Products such as in-house credit card processing, a best-of-breed home banking product, cross-sell products, relationship pricing, risk-based pricing, shared branching and an easy-to-use real-time SQL Reporting Module are just some of the system highlights. Wave FCU looks forward to the September 2020 migration.
