Unclaimed Capital Credits? Make it Easy for Your Members to Find Theirs!

Unclaimed Capital Credits? Make it Easy for Your Members to Find Theirs!

As a cooperative, you understand the power of the cooperative business model. Distributing operating margins back to your members through capital credits — allocating those margins as equity and, when feasible, returning them as cash or bill credits — is a tangible demonstration of this principle. This practice showcases the unique benefits of being a member-owner, where the financial results of the cooperative's operations directly benefit those who own and use it. But what happens when capital credits go unclaimed? 

Unclaimed capital credits represent a missed opportunity for your members and a potential headache for your cooperative. That's why we have developed a powerful solution: a searchable, embeddable capital credit database designed to seamlessly integrate into your existing website. 

Our customizable database allows your members to quickly and easily check their capital credit status by simply entering their name or the name of a family member or friend. 

Key Features and Benefits:

• Customizable: Tailor the displayed data to match your specific needs and ensure clarity for your members. 
   
• User-Friendly Interface: We prioritize ease of use, making the search process intuitive and accessible for all members. 
   
• Seamless Integration: The database is designed to seamlessly integrate into your existing CWB or SHiNE website, maintaining a consistent brand experience.
