John Merrill, AVP of Cannabis Operations at Evergreen Credit Union, credits Shield as a critical partner in launching and scaling their cannabis banking program. By implementing Shield Engage for onboarding and Shield Assure for ongoing cannabis banking compliance, the team has streamlined processes, improved efficiency, and centralized documentation for members, regulators, and examiners. The partnership has also strengthened their reputation as a community-focused institution supporting local businesses.
“Shield has been In It, With Us since day one and has played a vital role in our growth. Shield Assure has helped simplify ongoing compliance with our members, while Shield Engage has streamlined new member onboarding, making the entire process more efficient and keeping everything in one place. Managing compliance with Shield has been straightforward and seamless for both our team and our members.”
