Welcome to Currency

Currency is a leading integrated marketing agency for credit unions

Over 23 years of business success comes from the company we keep. At Currency, this means great people doing great work for great credit unions since 1990. We take pride in our work and we deliver results. If we sound like company your credit union would like to keep, let's talk.

Purpose

Help credit unions deepen their relationships with members and persuade bank customers to become credit union members.

We can’t wait for the day when credit unions have more members than banks have customers. We believe that credit unions are the best choice for consumers. We continuously challenge ourselves to bring innovative ideas to life and to provide effective marketing solutions to each credit union we partner with. We want credit unions to gain ground on the banks one member at a time. This is the reason we get out of bed every morning and come to work.

Principles 

The promises we make to ourselves and to our clients drive us.

We will not do everything we are told. We make it our responsibility to bring you ideas you didn't ask for, and to keep solving problems in new and different ways. We will argue for what we believe in, but we won't be arrogant about it. There is enough arrogance in the world today. These are our guiding principles that we follow every day.

No banks – We only work with credit unions. We believe in the credit union movement so strongly that our agency will not work with banks, no matter how big the vault is!

No bull – We charge a fair price. There are no hidden charges or game playing. We are what we are and are proud of it. We believe in open communication in everything we do.
