MemberXP is a voice of member platform that allows credit union members to provide immediate feedback on the service they receive. The platform utilizes mystery shops and member surveys to gauge the overall member experience across multiple delivery channels and specific experiences such as getting a loan or opening a new account. "First Commonwealth's top scores show a real commitment to listening to members and improving the member experience based on that feedback," said Constance Anderson, founder of MemberXP.
