New banking experience

Your new banking experience

We've been busy building Beem! here's some changes and enhancements coming your way.

Your new digital experience arrives soon

Members will transition to Beem’s new online banking platform, mobile app, and website through a simple setup process. You'll receive clear instructions by mail and email to guide you every step of the way, but today we want to give you a heads up on what’s coming and where you can go for more information.

 

Transition timeline

Our thoughtfully phased approach:

May 2025

Former Interior Savings members transition to the new Beem digital banking experience


June 2025

Former Gulf & Fraser and North Peace members transition to the new Beem digital banking experience, and Beem undergoes banking system merge

 

What can you do to prepare?

As a former Gulf & Fraser member, you’ll receive instructions on May 16 with everything you need to know about seamlessly transitioning to your new digital experience, including what you can do to prepare in advance.
