Having a Fairbanking Mark shows your members that you are there to help them manage their money better.
The Fairbanking Mark is the only financial certification scheme in the UK granted accreditation by the UK Accreditation Service (UKAS). One of the requirements for certification of a product is an independent survey of its members to verify that there is evidence of each feature working and to identify signs of detriment. After applying you will be tested and bench-marked against all financial providers.
Almost 10% of all Credit Unions have Fairbanking Marks. By gaining a mark you would be joining a group of Credit Unions and other Financial Institutions that are promoting financial wellbeing and supporting their customers.
