Flexible financing solutions for manufacturers from Vibrant Credit Union. Improve cash flow, fund equipment, and support your business growth. Financing is a growth lever. Are you using it? Consumer equipment financing built for outdoor equipment dealers and manufacturers Let's Connect Make your brand the easiest line to sell. When a buyer walks onto a dealer lot and financing isn’t available — or it’s slow, complicated, or off-brand — deals stall. Inventory sits. Dealers get frustrated and start pushing lines that are easier to sell. A manufacturer-backed financing program changes that equation. We can help remove the friction between “I want it” and “I’ll take it.” 50%+ apps are auto-approved on the spot 30 minute minute turnaround on manual underwriting 50 states covered by dedicated relationship managers A Relationship, Not a Help Desk Vibrant is a federally insured, member-owned credit union — not a bank, not a captive finance arm of a larger conglomerate. We don't hide behind automated systems. You get a dedicated team that picks up the phone, knows your business, and moves at the speed your dealers need. More units moved Point-of-sale financing converts browsers into buyers. When your dealers can approve a customer in minutes, deals close the same day. Stronger dealer relationships Equip your dealers with a tool that makes their job easier and their customers happier. They’ll prioritize your line over competitors. Brand presence at every sale Your program, your name, your rates. Every financed transaction reinforces your brand — not a generic lender’s. Data and visibility Understand what’s selling, where, and at what terms. A dedicated program gives you intelligence your competitors don’t have. Trusted by manufacturers who demand more. We run exclusive financing programs for Yanmar, YCENA, McCormick, and Wacker Neuson — and we’re selective about who we build with next. Our best partnerships are built on shared commitment to dealer success and customer experience. Let's see if we're the right fit.

Savings with up to $5M* in protection. Maximize NCUA insurance coverage while earning competitve returns-automatically. Are your funds fully insured? Keep every dollar safe, accessible, and working for you — all in one account. Learn More Schedule a meeting A safer way to protect & access your funds. Traditional banks insure only up to $250,000 per account, leaving many organizations with uncovered funds. Vibrant’s Insured Money Market Account with Extended Share Insurance gives you expanded NCUA-backed protection — without the burden of opening multiple accounts across multiple institutions. Your funds stay in one secure, consolidated account, while our auto-sweep network works behind the scenes to maximize insurance coverage. No extra accounts, no additional paperwork, and no managing multiple statements. Whether you’re managing operating reserves, capital planning, or savings for future growth, this account delivers the safety, liquidity, and simplicity you need. Fully Insured Coverage Extend your protection will beyond standard limits with up to $15 million in fully insured deposits.* Full Liquidity of Funds Access your reserves any time (before the daily cutoff) without penalties, restrictions, or waiting periods. Competitive Earnings Earn strong, market-leading rates while keeping every dollar insured — no need to sacrifice safety for growth. One Account, One Statement No more managing multiple bank relationships; your entire balance rolls into one clean, consolidated view. No Hidden Fees — Ever Enjoy the benefits of this account without hidden fees, draw fees, or usage requirements. Designed for people and organizations that need safety, clarity, and control. This account supports anyone managing reserves above standard insurance limits — without the complexity of juggling multiple financial institutions. Faith-Based Organizations HOAs & COAs Small & Mid-Sized Businesses Schools & Educational Institutions Nonprofits & Community Organizations Municipalities & Public Agencies Foundations & Trusts High-Balance Individuals Get started Why organizations choose extended insurance and why traditional banks fall short. Many organizations unknowingly hold reserves that exceed standard insurance limits — leaving some funds exposed. Others struggle with liquidity, costly fees, or slow access to capital when needs arise. Here’s how Vibrant solves those challenges with one streamlined account. Challenge Solution Large reserves over $250,000 may exceed standard insurance limits—leaving some funds uncovered. Emergency repairs or other expenses require fast access to your funds. Unexpected building repairs or urgent expenses require more capital than you have. Transparency is needed for seasonal cash flow and fluctuating profits, donations, tuition, or offerings. High-yield accounts can be risky, restrictive, or come with hidden fees, putting your reserves at risk or limiting access. You want a financial partner who shares your values and supports your mission. Our high-yield reserve account* is fully insured and backed by the full faith of the U.S. Government through NCUA coverage , keeping your funds secure and accessible. Our insured money market account is fully liquid , giving you same-day access to funds (prior to cutoff time) without compromising safety. We offer quick, easy eligibility for lines of credit tailored to your organization with no personal guarantees, draw fees, non-usage fees, or origination fees. With 24/7 account visibility and access , you're always prepared. If bundled with a line of credit, you can draw instantly for immediate funding. With no hidden fees and full access to your funds, you can earn competitive interest rates to grow your reserves with no risks involved. Vibrant is a partner investing in your mission and the community through our Be the Good Foundation . Schedule time to talk with an expert "We invest back into communities and help organizations like yours thrive. By partnering with us, you’re choosing a financial institution that cares about purpose — not just profit." Nick Tarpein — Chief Financial Officer, Vibrant Credit Union "I've had a great experience with Vibrant. The representative I work with is most helpful and goes above and beyond to make sure all details of my account are clear and accessible." Regena C — Vibrant Member “In our mind...we have to have government backed accounts that ensure safety , so the FDIC/NCUA insurance is vital for us & it always has been.” Paul S — President, KWBTS “Vibrant combines deep knowledge with a friendly, no-rush approach that immediately puts you at ease...

ModernFi is a network of credit unions that Vibrant Credit Union has joined to help better protect your balances by distributing funds across partner credit unions to offer extended NCUA share insurance. How does the Extended Insurance Account work? Suppose you have $1 million that you want to safeguard and earn interest on. You can achieve this by depositing the full amount with Vibrant Credit Union through an Extended Insurance Account. The money is then distributed into smaller portions and placed in demand deposit accounts at various credit unions within the network. The first $250,000 will be allocated to Vibrant Credit Union, another $250,000 to Credit Union 2, an additional $250,000 to Credit Union 3, and the remaining $250,000 to Credit Union 4. All of these credit unions are partnered with the ModernFi Network. This allocation helps ensure that each dollar is covered by NCUA share insurance, in an amount up to the maximum of $250,000 per share owner per credit union. Using these Extended Insurance Accounts eliminate the need to keep track of multiple accounts at various credit unions. All of your deposits and activity across your allocated credit unions are consolidated into one statement. Additionally, the Extended Insurance Account interest rate is competitive, making it a compelling choice for individuals and businesses with substantial cash reserves. Who maintains my Extended Insurance Account? You control the account just like a regular transaction account. You can deposit, withdraw, or transfer funds at any time through a dedicated Member Portal. Vibrant Credit Union and ModernFi manage and oversee your allocation, ensuring funds are distributed to demand deposit accounts within the network. How secure is the Extended Insurance Account? Extended Insurance Accounts offer a high degree of security for your deposits, utilizing NCUA insurance to safeguard funds up to $250,000 per member at each participating credit union. This protection extends even in the event of a participating credit union’s failure, ensuring the continued safety of your deposits. Since the inception of the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund in 1970, no member has lost NCUA-insured funds due to a credit union's failure. All accounts at NCUA-insured credit unions are covered on a dollar-for-dollar basis, encompassing principal plus any interest accrued. In the unlikely event a credit union fails, the NCUA assumes the responsibility of closing the credit union, receives its assets, and settles all deposit claims. Vibrant Credit Union works with ModernFi to file all required materials with the NCUA to coordinate the receipt of your funds from the failed institution. Payment starts within a few business days after the credit union closure. For more information on NCUA insurance, please visit here. What qualifies a credit union’s eligibility to join ModernFi’s network? ModernFi partners with credit unions in good standing with regulators and compliant with all Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer requirements. ModernFi only places deposits at US-based NCUA-insured credit unions that are monitored by a U.S. federal or state governmental agency responsible for the supervision of financial institutions. Vibrant Credit Union maintains complete control over the credit unions that can receive your funds.
