For Leagues
Your members
deserve better yield.
Credit union leagues are the most effective channel to reach member CUs. Partner with LifeNotes™ to deliver tangible financial value — bulk portfolio analysis, education programming, and measurable ROI for your members.
Most member credit unions have life insurance on the books. Few are getting the most from it.
Partnership Value
Deliver measurable financial value to your member credit unions.
Most credit unions in your league hold CUOLI or split dollar on their books — and LifeNotes is the trust 100+ credit unions across 28 states already use to convert those positions into fixed-duration yield. Those that hold CUOLI typically earn 3-5% and carry split dollar loans for 30+ years. Your league can be the channel that delivers the conversion to your members.
A LifeNotes league partnership gives you a concrete, quantifiable benefit to offer member CUs: better yield, shorter duration, and competitive executive benefits — backed by institutional-grade trust infrastructure with 100+ credit unions already in the program.

The League Advantage
Leagues are the most effective channel to reach credit unions.
LifeNotes treats the credit union league as the highest-leverage partnership channel — leagues already serve as the trusted authority their members rely on for vetted financial programs. When a league endorses or partners with LifeNotes, member CUs engage at a fundamentally different level than cold outreach. That trust converts into measurable financial value for every member.
Trusted Introduction
Member CUs engage differently when the league makes the introduction. You are their trusted advisor — not a cold call. That trust shortens evaluation cycles and increases adoption rates.
Measurable League ROI
Track aggregate yield improvement, duration reduction, and new executive benefit programs across your membership. Quantifiable value you can report to your own board.
Competitive Differentiation
Not every league offers this. A LifeNotes partnership gives your league a tangible financial benefit that differentiates you from competing organizations and adds real value to membership.
Scalable Model
Whether your league has 20 members or 200, the partnership scales. Bulk analysis, education programming, and implementation support adapt to your membership size and structure.
