Introducing EPL’s New Corporate Logo


 Say “Hello!” to EPL’s new corporate logo and refreshed visual identity system. This is an exciting time for our organization as we look to the future – both for our company, and the credit union industry as a whole. We are not the same company we were just two short years ago, and our new look is the culmination of a period of transformation – transformation into a software development company that provides the most competitive financial products and best customer service in the market.

Our vision for the future is both collective and aspirational in nature. Alongside our partners at Dedagroup, who made a majority investment in EPL in 2015, we’ve doubled down on our commitment to relentless innovation and focused intensely on creating the best customer experience through adherence to the three core tenets that drive and define us – Evolve. Perform. Lead. These tenets, which define our acronymic name, are easily witnessed through the consistent results we deliver to our customers.

After countless hours of exploration, organizational introspection and stakeholder participation, we decided it was finally time that our aesthetics aligned with the bold new course we have we have charted with Dedagroup – a course toward the realization of industry-leading technologies delivered alongside unrivaled customer service. The new EPL logo better reflects our company’s forward-looking vision and innovative aspirations, pursued constantly by a team devoted to developing viable, affordable and savvy software solutions that improve customer profitability and enhance the user experience.

Typography and Color Palette

The humble, yet confident typography and inherently approachable color palette pay homage to the first-class products and service EPL provides in a more modern, aesthetically pleasing manner.  

The Mark

The circular design of the mark points to the global perspective and resources brought to EPL by Dedagroup, while telling a deeper and more meaningful story. It is comprised of three elements that represent our three tenets – Evolve. Perform. Lead. – which are organized in a manner that empowers the viewer to visualize each individual letter of EPL within the circular mark itself.

The Payoff

The payoff – “A Dedagroup Company” – tells the world that we are fully integrated and aligned with our partner, and a member of the Dedagroup family of companies. It gives further credence to Dedagroup’s confidence in EPL as its first U.S. partner, and is a second nod to the global perspective and resources the partnership affords us.

So, what’s next? Well, our upward trajectory will continue. We will evolve in an ever-changing financial marketplace, catering to the changing needs of our credit union customers and providing the speed of access to financial information that members demand. Our robust software solutions will perform at the highest level in the marketplace, giving us a competitive edge over other core providers. Finally, we will lead our industry and set the standard for true innovation, customer service and employee satisfaction.

This is who we are. This is where we’re going. This is the new EPL.
