First, set up your relationship with Virtual StrongBox
To provide this online safety deposit box as a service to your members, your credit union will first work with Virtual StrongBox. They will train your credit union staff on the product and prepare you for its launch.
Once Virtual Strongbox is implemented, they will also provide you with support. Credit union employees can log directly into your Virtual StrongBox website before it is connected to It’s Me 247. That way, your staff can become familiar with the product before it is activated for members.
Your credit union will sign agreements directly with Virtual StrongBox, and they will set your implementation date with you. Use this contact information:
You will also need to fill out and return the CU*Answers Agreement which can be downloaded here:

Once they create an account, they will be able to securely and easily upload and archive documents such as wills, trusts, birth certificates, and deeds.
