In the world of mortgage finance, everything revolves around trust, security, and accessibility. Customers expect information to always be available and processes to run smoothly. For Vista Hypotheken, a stable and secure digital environment is therefore essential. To further develop its website and make it future-proof, Vista Hypotheken works together with development partner Cube and hosting partner Shock Media. A collaboration in which development, infrastructure, and security come together.
Vista Hypotheken
Vista Hypotheken is part of Rabobank and has now been operating for almost eight years. With more than 30,000 customers, Vista Hypotheken continues to evolve as a modern and innovative mortgage lender, where personal attention and a predictable process are central.
“As a modern and innovative mortgage lender in the Dutch mortgage market, we go the extra mile every day for both mortgage advisors and homebuyers.”
Maarten Bovy, Manager IT bij Vista Hypotheken
The challenge: reliable and secure hosting
In the financial sector, an unstable environment can have a direct impact on the trust of customers and advisors. That is why Vista Hypotheken was looking for a combination of a development partner and a hosting partner that could work together to provide a future-proof website.
“Developing a website and hosting it in a reliable and secure way are two different challenges that are closely connected. We were looking for new partners who could bridge these two worlds.”
Maarten Bovy, Manager IT bij Vista HypothekenOne thing was clear for Vista Hypotheken: the new website not only had to be well developed, but also had to run on a reliable and secure infrastructure. As a managed hosting partner, Shock Media helps organizations bring these two worlds together.
The collaboration between Vista Hypotheken and Cube
During Vista Hypotheken’s search for a new development partner, we introduced them to our trusted partner, Cube. It quickly became clear that there was a strong connection between both organizations, and Cube was soon appointed as their new digital partner.
Cube
Cube is a strategic technology partner with nearly 15 years of experience. The team designs and develops front-end, middleware, and back-end solutions that help critical business processes run more smoothly from mobile apps and websites to customer portals and process management tools. By enabling systems and data to work together seamlessly, Cube creates the foundation for continued innovation, including the implementation of AI.
For Vista Hypotheken, Cube is responsible for the technical and content management of the website in the Dato CMS. The team keeps the platform stable and fast, ready for further development, while proactively identifying opportunities to improve both the user experience and conversion.
This is how Cube prefers to work: starting with a shared vision, translating it into concrete solutions, and then continuing to build for the long term. The team follows its own methodology: Create, Conceptualize, Build, and Evolve.
“We identify opportunities for improvement, advise on structure and content, and support the implementation of new functionalities that align with Vista's objectives.”

A successful partnership between Vista Hypotheken, Shock Media and Cube
What started as an introduction quickly grew into a partnership in which each party contributes its own expertise.
“Cube focuses on the development and continuous improvement of the website, while we provide a stable, secure, and scalable hosting environment.”
Justin aan de Stegge, Partnermanager bij Shock MediaThanks to the short lines of communication and the trust between Vista Hypotheken, Cube, and Shock Media, they were able to act quickly, and challenges were resolved efficiently and without delay.
“Our collaboration with Vista Hypotheken is characterized by short communication lines, mutual trust, and a shared focus on quality and growth. By continuously thinking ahead and responding quickly, we ensure together that the website not only continues to perform well technically, but also remains aligned with the needs of users and the market.”
Marleen Poorthuis, Projectmanager & Teamlead bij CubeMaarten Bovy explains that they have found reliable long-term partners in Cube and Shock Media on whom they can continue to build as an organization. According to Maarten, Shock Media’s strength lies in bridging the gap between a robust hosting environment and the applications running on it. He also appreciates the company’s fast and personal service.
Shock Media also experiences the collaboration with Vista and Cube as highly enjoyable. Together, we ensure that Vista can remain fully focused on what matters most to them: supporting mortgage advisors and homebuyers with reliable and accessible services.
Cube is equally enthusiastic about the partnership between all parties.
“Our collaboration with Shock Media goes back many years, and during that time it has grown into a true partnership. They know our tech stack, think along with us on the same technical level, and work with us to find the best solution.”
Mans Booijink, Operations Manager CubeThis success story highlights the importance of collaboration between digital agencies and managed hosting providers. By working together, it’s possible to build the best solutions for leading organizations such as Vista Hypotheken.
