Vertyx and Great Lakes Credit Union launch CUSO to support modernized mortgage servicing for credit unions

BANNOCKBURN, Ill., and NEW YORK, N.Y., Feb. 24, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Vertyx, a provider of intelligent mortgage servicing technology built for enhanced portfolio performance, today announced it has partnered with Great Lakes Credit Union (GLCU), through its CUSO holding company GLCU Holdings LLC, to launch Vertyx CUSO LLC, a newly formed credit union service organization (CUSO) dedicated to transforming mortgage servicing with a member-first philosophy and shared, credit union focused technology.

The launch follows a year of significant growth for Vertyx within the credit union ecosystem. The formation of Vertyx CUSO LLC formalizes the company’s commitment to serving as a long-term technology partner for innovative mortgage servicing teams across the credit union industry.

“Mortgage servicing has traditionally been treated as a cost center and a source of friction for both members and operations teams,” said Vertyx Co-Founder Ayo Opeyemi. “Vertyx CUSO was created to change that dynamic by enabling credit unions to retain key member relationships while transforming servicing into a driver of loyalty, efficiency and portfolio growth.”

As a credit union service organization, Vertyx CUSO LLC enables credit unions to share technology and expertise while accessing modern servicing capabilities that would be difficult to build independently. The CUSO structure reinforces Vertyx’s commitment to collaboration, scalability and long-term value creation for the credit union industry.

Vertyx delivers a mortgage servicing platform designed to help financial institutions retain servicing, modernize operations and reduce dependence on legacy systems. The platform provides a single source of truth by centralizing portfolio data, embedding automated compliance into daily workflows and supporting faster, data-driven decision-making, while an API-first architecture allows credit unions to connect with existing vendors without costly proprietary integrations and reduce operational risk.

“Vertyx has been a phenomenal partner for Mortgage Forward, our wholly owned CUSO, in helping us elevate the mortgage servicing experience for our members,” said Michael Abraham, CEO of GLCU Holdings LLC and Chief Strategy Officer at Great Lakes Credit Union. “We are excited to deepen this partnership and continue to innovate on mortgage servicing solutions that provide real value to the credit union movement.”

Vertyx Expands Mortgage Servicing Platform with Portfolio Retention and Engagement Measurement Tools for Servicers and Investors

NEW YORK, N.Y., Jan. 27, 2026 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Vertyx, a provider of intelligent mortgage servicing technology built for enhanced portfolio performance, today announced the release of Borrower Relationship Management, a new capability within its end-to-end mortgage servicing platform designed to help servicers and investors identify retention and recapture opportunities earlier, deliver timely outreach through borrower channels and measure engagement.

Image caption: Vertyx, Inc. logo.

Borrower Relationship Management is designed around three stakeholders in the mortgage lifecycle — the borrower, the servicer and the investor — with the goal of helping institutions protect portfolio value while delivering a higher-quality servicing experience. This feature surfaces mortgages within your portfolio that may need attention based on a proprietary blend of leading indicators.

Servicing and retention teams can use those signals to create promotional offers, define eligibility criteria, and run outreach campaigns that place targeted messages across all borrower touchpoints, such as online portals and borrower-facing statements. Offer-level tracking, including digital views and clicks, helps teams evaluate effectiveness and refine outreach.

Homeowners can then see those offers through the borrower portal, where offers are presented based on the borrower’s mortgage, including the ability to surface distinct offers for each loan. The same activity drives reporting that helps servicers and investors understand coverage and engagement to adjust outreach accordingly. That feedback loop supports timely, relevant outreach that fits naturally into the borrower experience.

“Servicing teams need tools that help them stay ahead of borrower needs while keeping the experience helpful and human,” said Ayo Opeyemi, co-founder of Vertyx. “Borrower Relationship Management builds on our platform’s foundation to help servicers engage homeowners in the right moments through the channels they already use.”

For investors, Borrower Relationship Management leverages AI to generate analytics that guide the understanding of each mortgage’s return and risk profile. These insights help investors support more informed decisions when loan performance changes, including delinquency scenarios, and provide the visibility needed to boost returns across their portfolios. Investors can also drill down from portfolio-level insights into a specific loan to review underlying servicing details such as payment history and cash received. The platform also considers relationship value at the borrower level, including cases where a homeowner has multiple loans, to help institutions prioritize high-value relationships and identify responsible opportunities to deepen engagement.

“Servicing data has traditionally been difficult for investors to access in a timely, usable way,” said Moyin Opeyemi, co-founder of Vertyx. “By bringing loan-level value signals and engagement insights together with portfolio visibility, investors and servicers can prioritize attention and respond earlier when performance or payoff risk starts to shift.”

Borrower Relationship Management is delivered as part of Vertyx’s end-to-end mortgage servicing platform, composed of Edge, the core servicing system where servicing teams work; myAxis, the borrower portal; and Lynk, the investor portal. The platform was built to modernize servicing operations with a cloud-based, real-time architecture and to support stronger visibility for all stakeholders across the life of the loan. Vertyx is designed to support borrower communications and self-service through secure interactions and configurable borrower experiences.

Ardley Launches OneLink Technology, Enabling Real-Time, Customized Mortgage Offers for Any Qualified Borrower

Lenders and servicers can now offer hyper-customized loan offers, expanding access to non-mortgage clients and brand new borrower prospects

RESTON, Va., Sept. 18, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Ardley, the leading provider of borrower-level mortgage intelligence, today announced the launch of Ardley OneLink, a first-of-its-kind universal entry point to the Ardley Intelligence Platform. OneLink enables lenders and servicers to instantly deliver Ardley-enabled custom loan offers to any qualified potential borrower.

Two of the biggest challenges mortgage lenders and servicers face in generating new originations are:

Low borrower conversion rates with generic, non-personalized “rates-as-low-as” marketing
The inability to market directly depository customers and brand new prospects who do not already hold a mortgage

OneLink solves both problems by turning any touchpoint, from emails and websites to servicing communications, into a seamless gateway to Ardley Navigator. Borrowers see real mortgage offers with real pricing, based on their individual data and the lender’s actual loan programs, in seconds.

“OneLink allows lenders and servicers to capture exponentially more of the warm, ready-to-transact borrowers already in their ecosystems — from depository clients to brand-new prospects,” said Nathan Den Herder, CEO of Ardley. “It delivers a white-labeled, universal experience that meets every borrower where they are, shows them what’s possible based on their real parameters, and drives higher conversions as a result.”

What differentiates these offers from those of most other lenders is: they are based on real-time pricing for the exact loan programs offered by the lender, and matched to the borrower’s and property’s specific parameters.

The OneLink borrower experience starts with a simple link. Ardley Intelligence authenticates borrower identity and context in real time, evaluates eligibility, and delivers personalized loan offers with accurate, live pricing. Borrowers can then apply directly or be routed to the lender’s preferred loan officer or digital application flow.

“OneLink fits seamlessly into the channels lenders already use — email, servicer communications, lender websites — without adding complexity,” added Den Herder. “It’s invisible to the lender, until they see the spike in applications.”

OneLink is available now as part of the Ardley platform.

About Ardley Technologies, Inc.

Ardley is the industry leader in borrower-level eligibility intelligence, monitoring more than 5 million borrowers every day. The platform has generated over 50,000 automated applications, delivering lenders an average 8x return on investment. By bridging the gap between market signals and true borrower readiness, Ardley helps lenders maximize retention, increase marketing ROI, and deliver a seamless, trustworthy experience for homeowners. https://www.ardley.com/
