Keep the member. Recover the balance. Before charge-off.
Debt Digest is the software credit unions use to give past-due members a fair, self-service way to catch up online, on your brand, on your timeline. Built around the NCUA 120-day charge-off window. You approve every message. Flat per-account subscription: no contingency, no percentage of recovery.
See how the compliance works · built so your credit union stays the only voice your member hears.
Credit unions today. The broader creditor industry over time.
Two ways your members catch up · one platform · your brand throughout
Catch up before charge-off
Reach members while there is still time
Give past-due members a self-service way to get current before the account is written off, on the timeline your portfolio runs on. Your team approves every notice, and the platform handles the required disclosures and timing. How the timing works.
Settle online, without phone tag
A clear path to a settlement you approve
When a member or their representative wants to settle, they do it in one online place: offers, counters, e-sign, and payment confirmation, all on the screen. Every offer is checked against the floor you set, so nothing goes below your number.
Firm-negotiated accounts
For post-charge-off accounts with legal representation
When a member retains a settlement firm, your team works the account through the settlement workspace. Firm submits an offer; your configured floor auto-approves or routes it for review. E-sign and remittance in the same thread.
Live today, and growing as credit unions pull us forward.
You decide when members hear from you.
The platform never contacts your members on its own. It prepares each notice for your team, in your name, with the required disclosures and timing built in. Your team presses send. Flat per-account subscription: no contingency, no percentage of recovery.

1
Import your accounts
Export from Symitar, CU*BASE, FIS, Jack Henry, or your core. We auto-generate the FDCPA §809(a) validation notice, build a per-account profile, and mark each account as Not Yet Contacted.
-
2
Review who hasn't been contacted
Filter to the Not Yet Contacted queue. See the prepared notice, the channel recommendation, and the TCPA quiet-hours window before anything goes out. Operator-overridable, fully auditable.

Click to send: you're in control
One button. Notices go out under your credit union's name, your reply-to, your brand. The append-only audit log captures which user clicked, when, and which account moved from pending to sent: examiner-ready by default.
Creditor-initiated
How the three paths actually compare.
Most creditors pick one of three delinquency strategies. Here's what each costs, and what you give up.
| Attribute | Traditional agency | In-house collections | Debt Digest |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pre-charge-off intervention | No | Partial | Yes, 45–115 DPD |
| Typical cure / recovery rate | 10–18% | 15–20% | 25 to 35% cure target |
| Member relationship preserved | Often broken | Varies by agent | Preserved, self-service |
Your legal team wrote our spec, not the reverse.
FDCPA, Reg F, NCUA, FFIEC, TCPA, and state servicer rules are how the platform behaves by default, not what a compliance officer enforces after the fact.
FDCPA §1692eFDCPA §809(a) Validation notice

Reg F §1006.6 Outreach windows

Request a pilotSix surfaces. One workspace. Built for the regulator over your shoulder.
Live cures in 30 days. Walk away in 90 if we miss your baseline.
Non-exclusive. Champion-challenger structure. No upfront platform fee. All accounts returned to you on exit, with no lock-in.
Binding pilot agreement. Covers your baseline, pricing, and the 90-day exit clause. Your counsel reviews in one session.
One CSV from Symitar, CU*BASE, or your core. We create member records, generate FDCPA §809(a) notices, and seed outreach profiles per account.
Members self-resolve in the portal. Weekly status reports. Cure rate vs your baseline updates live in your dashboard.
The evaluation is free until you place 100 accounts or 30 days pass, whichever comes first, and does not convert automatically. Continued paid access begins only after a separately accepted subscription order form. Standard pricing is $2.50 per active account per month with a $1,500 monthly floor; there is no per-resolution, outcome, contingency, or percentage-of-recovery fee.
At what cure rate does Debt Digest pay for itself? Almost any.
Four numbers from your last 12 months. See how the platform subscription compares against the incremental recovery your team (or a 25–40% contingency agency) would have left on the table anyway.
Industry default baseline is 10–12%. We report your recovery lift against your own baseline; it is an ROI-reporting benchmark, never a fee trigger. Cure definition: 0 DPD + 60 days current.
Illustrative. The evaluation is $0 until 100 accounts or 30 days, whichever comes first, and does not convert automatically. A separately accepted standard order form is $2.50 per active account per month with a $1,500 monthly floor. No per-resolution or percentage-of-recovery fee.
Subscription pricing that scales with your portfolio, not your recovery.
No per-seat fees. No setup charges. No percentage of recovery. Flat per-account subscription billed monthly.

Cure definition: account returns to 0 DPD and remains current 60+ days. This is how your recovery ROI is reported, not a billing trigger. Your baseline (your own 12-month history or a 10% industry default) is a reporting benchmark, never a fee basis. Payment flow: member pays you directly. You pay Debt Digest a flat monthly subscription. No percentage of recovery. Detailed terms on /pricing.
Plain answers to the four questions every procurement deck includes.
No spin. If a question doesn't have a clean answer yet, we say so.
Built by someone who has been in the courtroom.
Debt Digest's founder works at a debt-settlement law firm representing people being sued for credit-card debt. Every day, hundreds of clients walk in scared, confused, and convinced they are the only one who is behind. Almost all of them want to pay. They just do not know how, and every collections call they have had made it worse.
The usual model is built around post-charge-off agencies who get paid to pressure. Debt Digest moves the moment of help earlier, takes the pressure out of it, and gives members a path they can actually take, while the credit union stays the only voice they hear. Your members are your owners; the experience should reflect that.
This is not a collections company trying to sound nice. It is the product we wish existed for every client we have represented.
