Credit unions are moving beyond paper brochures and static posters—and for good reason. Today’s members expect a modern, tech-forward experience when they visit a branch. That’s why more credit unions are replacing printed materials with digital signage that not only promotes products but also improves the member experience in real time.

From Paper to Screens: A Smarter Lobby Experience

Branches like UniWyo Federal Credit Union have already made the switch—replacing racks of brochures with bright, dynamic screens that engage members the moment they walk in. It’s a growing trend across credit unions of all sizes, and Better Lobby is proud to help lead the way with our Wall Display module.

The Wall Display doesn’t just look great—it keeps your lobby running smoothly. Members can see where they are in the queue, who’s currently being served, and estimated wait times. This visibility builds trust and reduces stress, transforming the waiting experience into one that feels fair, transparent, and efficient.

The Power of Pairing with the Better Lobby Kiosk

When combined with the Better Lobby Kiosk, the Wall Display becomes even more powerful. Members can check in on their own using a tablet, desktop, or QR code kiosk—and instantly see their name appear on the Wall Display. This seamless interaction eliminates confusion and helps everyone in the lobby understand the flow of service.

Managers also benefit from this pairing, gaining better visibility into traffic patterns and staffing needs without adding more work for their teams.

Why It Matters

Digital displays and self check-in kiosks aren’t just upgrades—they’re part of a smarter, more member-focused branch strategy. Together, they:

  • Reduce frustration by showing clear, real-time updates.

  • Show professionalism with modern, branded visuals.

  • Demonstrate innovation that aligns with members’ digital expectations.

  • Free up staff to focus on meaningful member interactions instead of managing lines.

Key Takeaway about the Wall Display and Kiosk

Combining Better Lobby’s Kiosk and Wall Display modules gives credit unions the tools to modernize their branch experience. It’s a simple yet powerful way to show members that your credit union values their time, embraces technology, and continues to put people first.

 

The following section is the original post from May 2016. While some product names and screenshots may be outdated, we’ve kept it here for historical reference.

Many credit union marketing departments are foregoing brochures for in-branch digital signage. This trend is noticeable in credit unions of all sizes. Case in point: Laramie, WY-based UniWyo Federal Credit Union, which has $271M in assets and about 24,000 members, recently replaced paper brochures in their lobbies with screens.

We have addressed this trend head on with the release of our Branch Queue Display module which is the latest addition to our industry leading Better Lobby management platform. Because we developed this module to be responsive, credit unions can run it on virtually any screens that they have in their branches.

Key Takeaway: it makes perfect sense to combine digital marketing with the ability to show waiting visitors their place in the queue. It visually demonstrates to your members that you are a technologically advanced credit union that places a high value on your members’ time during each branch visit.
