PALO ALTO, Calif.—June 23, 2025—Talkdesk®, Inc. announced that Talkdesk Financial Services Experience Cloud™ has been honored with a 2025 Finopotamus Tekkie Award in the “Game Changer” category.

The Finopotamus Tekkie Awards celebrate technology solutions that are transforming the credit union industry. The “Game Changer” category specifically recognizes technologies that have been successfully deployed in credit unions and demonstrated a significant and positive impact. 

Talkdesk Financial Services Experience Cloud is a customer experience automation (CXA) platform purpose-built to help credit unions overcome industry challenges and meet evolving customer expectations. With pre-built integrations to core banking systems, specialized workflows, and embedded AI, the platform enhances member interactions, streamlines operations, and helps drive loyalty. 

“Being named a ‘Game Changer’ by Finopotamus is a powerful testament to the tangible impact our AI-powered platform is having on the credit union industry,” said Rahul Kumar, general manager of financial services and insurance at Talkdesk. “Credit unions are built on the foundation of member relationships, and we’re proud to provide them with the tools needed to serve members effectively and strengthen those connections.” 

Credit unions using Talkdesk Financial Services Experience Cloud have achieved significant improvements in key metrics. For example, Apple Federal Credit Union improved its average speed of answer by nearly three minutes, and Municipal Credit Union achieved a 64% containment rate for inbound inquiries, projecting over $1 million in savings.

This latest award win adds to the growing industry recognition for Talkdesk Financial Services Experience Cloud, which was also recently named the “Best Customer Experience Solution” at the 2025 Banking Tech USA Awards.
