In an attempt to meet the member's needs, NACUFOK joined KFTCI (Korea Financial Telecommunications & Clearing Institute) as dated of Sept 20, 2001. As a consequence of its affiliation, it enables NACUFOK to offer the overall financial network services that includes billing, CD network, joint banking network, CMS joint banking network and so on. Throughout the on-line financial network, the Billing settlement, CD Deposit/withdrawal & money transfer, On-line remittance/receipt & transfer, ARS, Web banking and Telebanking are possibly in service.
By Entering into KFTCI service, NACUFOK grows out of the partial on-line services that previously relied upon the partnership with other commercial banks and thus the increment of commission fee, primal credit unions expecting to elevate their sound management backed by the diversification of earnings.

Going into a Credit Card partnership with the Industrial Bank of Korea, NACUFOK offers its members with the various types of financial services alongside primal credit unions and its member credit unions as they do benefit out of the diversification of earnings supported by the secured credit card membership and cash card service. With this strategic partnership, members at their potential are highly expected to be more affiliated with their credit unions and it ensures to bring more future members driven by the downward of age bracket of credit card holders.
On the occasion of this meaningful event, NACUFOK paves the way for its independent credit card business if a permission is given later in the near future.

Despite the progressive increase ranges from 151,000 in 1999 up to 265,000 in 2000, the attainment of 300,000 newly signed contracts is seen as a great achievement but for all those difficulties given in hand.
