Most credit union website redesign projects cost between $35,000 and $120,000. The final cost depends on page count, design complexity, third-party integrations, interactive features, and optional products such as Form Builder, AI Assistant, Calculators, Product Choosers, or the ADA Compliance Widget. Proposals are itemized so organizations can select the services that fit their needs and budget.

Avtec offers both turnkey redesigns and à la carte services. A turnkey redesign can include design, development, hosting, CMS, and ongoing support. Organizations can also select individual services or add features to an existing website. Most services are billed monthly, and annual contracts are optional.

Client teams may be as involved as they choose. Avtec can handle most of the work, while teams may provide brand direction and marketing priorities or take a more hands-on role.
