The new home page design is more simple, user-friendly and effective than ever!

This demo introduces the improvements on Desjardins.com, including new features and information we've reorganized to be more accessible than ever.

We've based these changes directly on surveys conducted by our team and on your suggestions and comments.

Add a link to your caisse
The first change made improves the Add a link to your caisse feature, one of the most popular features on the site. It lets you quickly access your caisse's site, see its business hours or make an appointment with a caisse advisor directly from the home page.

Just click on the link and type your caisse's name or transit number in the search box.

A link to your caisse automatically appears on the home page.

You can also access a list of Desjardins caisses that are open on Saturdays or make an appointment with an advisor at your caisse.

Header
The header now has links to the RSS news feeds section and the Change site and Text size features.

RSS news feeds
The RSS news feeds section is now accessible directly from the Web site header and is becoming ever more popular with our visitors.

Subscribe to RSS news feeds you're interested in to receive financial updates. Use RSS feeds to track changes in mortgage rates, follow Desjardins news or be the first to know about our latest contests.

Change site
The site header now has a new feature: a link to the Change site page, where you can choose the Desjardins site you want to visit. The page contains links to all the different Desjardins Group Web sites and describes the services they offer.

Text size
To make it easier to read the information on our site, you can adjust the text size to your liking. This feature is now available in the upper left-hand corner of every Desjardins.com Web page.

About Desjardins section
Press releases, job offers and news about Desjardins Group can now be found under the new About Desjardins tab.

Explore
To the left, under the Online transactions menu, a different AccèsD feature is explained each week in the Explore block.

Products and services
Our Web site statistics and suggestions from our members led us to make the following adjustment: our products and services are now presented in 4 main categories, so you can quickly locate all our product pages.

You can also use 2 new dropdown menus (I want to and I am a) to find the information you need based on your plans or your circumstances.

Blog, videos and online TV
In this zone at the bottom of the home page, we've focused on providing reliable advice about personal financial management from a blog, videos and Desjardins's online TV show "Feu vert à vos affaires."

Feel free to explore the financial tips and join the discussion on the blog!

Online tools
Our calculators, online application forms and money tips are located in the Online tools menu, which includes the Rates and returns section where you can track your investments on a daily basis.

Take a few minutes to try out these useful tools!

Locator
You asked for an easy way to find a Desjardins caisse or ATM close to your home or workplace.

Here's the solution: a new feature called the Locator. Just enter your postal code in the search box to quickly access a list of the nearest caisses or ATMs.

What's new, contests and promotions
In the right-hand section of the home page, you can stay up to date on Desjardins's latest news, contests and promotions. You can even sign up for RSS news feeds to receive contest updates.

Newsroom
The Newsroom block contains the latest Desjardins Group press release. Click on More press releases [+] to see all Desjardins press releases by category and by month published.
