The Problem

Members Came to Log In, and Your Homepage Showed Them a Slideshow

It shows up every day, because many of your visitors are members with one quick task. When login, rates, and hours are hard to find, your call center answers those questions instead.

  1. 01 · Hidden login

    The login button hides behind a menu on phones.

    Online banking login sits in the header on every page and screen size.

  2. 02 · PDF rates

    Rates live in a PDF with no as-of date.

    One rate table feeds every product page, with an as-of date.

  3. 03 · Holiday hours

    Branch pages miss holiday closures, so members call to check.

    Branch and ATM pages show hours and holiday closures your team updates.

  4. 04 · Unclear accounts

    Shoppers can't tell which checking account has no monthly fee.

    Product pages compare accounts plainly and link straight to your application.

A member opens your site on a phone to check the auto loan rate before visiting a dealer. A rotating banner fills the screen, and the login button hides behind a menu. The rates page is a PDF from last quarter with no as-of date. Branch hours don't mention the holiday closure, so they call to check. A new resident comparing checking accounts can't tell which one has no monthly fee. Your call center spends the morning answering what the site should have.

We start with the tasks your members and customers come to do: log in, check a rate, find a branch, open an account. Login sits on every page and hands off to your digital banking provider. Rates come from one table your team updates, with an as-of date. Product pages compare accounts plainly and link to your application. Your compliance officer approves the FDIC or NCUA sign placement before anything goes live.

  • Login on every page

    Online banking login stays in the header and hands off to your provider without the site touching credentials.

  • Rates with an as-of date

    One rate table your team updates feeds every product page, so each page shows the same numbers.

  • Regulator rules built in

    FDIC or NCUA sign placement, Equal Housing Lender logos, and leaving-our-site notices your compliance officer approves.

Our Bank and Credit Union Website Process

From Member Tasks to a Compliant Launch in Five Steps

You approve each stage: the task map and sitemap, product copy and disclosures, a clickable design, an accessibility-tested staging site, and the launch checklist.

  1. We review your analytics, call center topics, and product lineup to see what members and customers come to do. You get a task-first sitemap, a rate table plan, and a fixed price.

What's Included

What You Get With Bank Website Design

Website design for banks and credit unions here covers member tasks, products, and compliance: login, rates, branches, product pages, disclosures, accessibility, and a stable build.

  • Login handoff to digital banking

    We link or embed your digital banking login exactly as your provider specifies, with no credentials stored on the site.

  • Rate tables your team updates

    One table feeds deposit and loan pages, with an as-of date and the disclosures your compliance officer approves.

  • Branch and ATM pages

    Hours, holiday closures, services, and directions for each location, plus links to the shared ATM networks you belong to.

  • Product pages that compare

    Checking, savings, loans, and cards explained side by side, each linking to your account opening or loan application.

  • Regulatory signs and notices

    FDIC or NCUA sign placement, Equal Housing Lender logos, and leaving-our-site notices for third-party links.

  • WCAG 2.1 AA build and testing

    Every template checked with automated tools, a keyboard, and a screen reader before launch, with fixes logged.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from teams we have built websites for.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture

Why Banks and Credit Unions Trust Us With Their Website

Our credit union web design services run on your compliance calendar, not ours. These habits keep your rates, disclosures, and accessibility right.

  • Compliance signs off first

    Your compliance officer reviews rates language, disclosures, and sign placement before design is final. We build review time into the schedule instead of squeezing it in at the end.

  • No credentials on the site

    Login hands off to your digital banking provider, so passwords don't pass through the marketing site. Our forms don't ask for account numbers or Social Security numbers either.

  • Accessibility tested by hand

    Automated scans catch only some issues, so we also test with a keyboard and a screen reader. Your members with disabilities need the same rates and hours everyone else sees.

  • Due diligence answered plainly

    We complete your vendor questionnaire with real answers about hosting, access, and backups. Your third-party risk review shouldn't stall the project.

  • Honest about vendor sites

    If your core provider's website product covers what you need, we'll tell you before we quote. A custom build should solve something it can't.

  • Your institution owns it all

    Domain, hosting, CMS, and analytics are registered to your institution. If you change vendors later, the site and its history stay with you.

Good fit

  • Community banks modernizing their site

    Your bank's site came with the core provider years ago, and you want community bank web design that looks and sounds like your town.

  • Credit unions growing membership

    Your field of membership just widened, and you need website design for credit unions that welcomes new members and explains how to join.

  • Marketing teams tired of PDF rates

    Your team updates rates in several places every time they change, and you want one table that feeds every page.

  • Institutions facing an accessibility audit

    You received an accessibility complaint or audit finding, and you need banking website design rebuilt to WCAG 2.1 AA, not patched with an overlay.

  • Agencies with a financial client

    Your agency won a bank or credit union account and needs a build partner who knows sign rules, rate tables, and vendor due diligence.

Not a fit

  • Mobile banking features

    You need new mobile banking or online banking features. That's app and platform development, not a website project, and it's scoped separately.

  • Insurance agency arm

    Your main project is the insurance agency your institution owns. Insurance Agency Website Design covers quote forms by line and carrier pages.

  • Wealth management arm

    You need a site for a wealth management or trust department. Financial Advisor Website Design Services fits advisor and RIA compliance review.

  • Budget under $1,450

    Your budget is under $1,450, or your core provider's site product already meets your needs. We'll say so before we quote.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on cost, planning, design, regulatory signs, and accessibility for bank and credit union sites.

  • A credit union website from DeveloperLook starts at $1,450 for 12 pages with a login handoff, rate table, and accessibility testing. Sites with product comparisons and up to 8 branches start at $3,700. Larger institutions with business banking and up to 25 branches start at $7,400. You get a fixed quote after a free discovery call.

  • Most bank and credit union sites launch in 5 to 12 weeks. Compliance review of rates language and disclosures usually adds 1 to 2 weeks, so we schedule it from the start. Vendor due diligence can run alongside discovery if your team sends the questionnaire early.

  • Plan it around member tasks. Start with analytics and call center topics to list what your members come to do, then put login, rates, branches, and products at the top of the site. Add field of membership and how-to-join pages, list required notices with your compliance officer, and set accessibility goals before design.

  • Design a bank website phone first, with login in the header, rates one tap away, and branch hours easy to find. Product pages should compare accounts in plain language and link to your application. Then test every template against WCAG 2.1 AA, and have compliance review signs and disclosures before launch.

  • Your compliance officer decides placement against the current rule. The FDIC's rules in 12 CFR Part 328 include an official digital sign for bank websites and apps. NCUA's rules in 12 CFR Part 740 cover the official sign and advertising statement for credit unions. We build exactly the placement your officer approves.

  • Yes, plan for it. Banks and credit unions have faced lawsuits under the ADA over inaccessible websites, so WCAG 2.1 AA is the practical target. We test with automated tools, a keyboard, and a screen reader, and we avoid overlay widgets because they don't fix the underlying code.

  • The website hands login to your digital banking provider. We link or embed the login exactly as your provider documents it, so credentials go straight to their platform and don't pass through the marketing site. We also add a fallback link and test the handoff on phones, tablets, and desktops.

  • A community bank website needs login, rates, branch and ATM pages, and a page for each product line. Add business banking, a financial education center, careers, and community involvement if you have them. Required notices, privacy policies, and leaving-our-site disclosures go in the footer and on the pages your compliance officer names.

  • Yes. We complete third-party risk questionnaires during discovery, covering hosting, access controls, backups, and incident handling. If your team needs supporting documents, we list what we can provide up front. Banking regulators expect you to review vendors like us, so we plan time for it instead of treating it as a delay.

  • Your team does, in a few clicks. Rates live in one table and hours in each branch entry, so an update shows everywhere at once. Support for fixes runs 30, 60, or 90 days after launch, depending on your plan, and a care plan can cover updates later. The domain and hosting stay in your institution's name.
