What about transaction processing? Have you done anything in this

It's possible there are developers out there who already have
a solution, which only needs to be adapted to your CU's needs.
If any such developer bids for the job against you, you will
probably lose, because they will not charge the CU for development,
only for adaptation, which will take a lot less time...
Assuming no one with a readily customizable solution bids against
you, you will need to show that:
1. You have experience working with whatever database engine the CU
uses.
2. You can program transactions processing using that database engine.
3. You can work with the CU's IT team.
4. You understand SSL very well.
5. You have basic domain expertise in banking (i.e., you know what
a routing number is, etc.)

This depends at least as much on the CU's network management
team as it does on you.

You should insist that the CU expressly idemnify you for any damage
caused by the software you write; this is a standard software
industry practice. See any software license for the appropriate
language.
