SEND MONEY WITH ZELLE®
We've partnered with Zelle®, a great way for Members to send money to almost any U.S. financial institution account using the recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile phone number.1 Zelle allows our Members to send money within minutes,2 providing Members the convenience of quickly paying non-Members in a variety of scenarios.
Split the cost of lunch with your friends.3 Ask your sister to pay you back for that sweater she ruined. Send money to your college kid for books. Give your carpool buddy money for gas. The possibilities are endless!
Zelle is a convenient way to send money to friends or family. It is not intended to be used to purchase items, concert tickets, services, etc. from people you do not know.
Ready to get started? It’s easy!
Zelle is already available within our Mobile Banking app. Enroll with Zelle through our Mobile Banking app in just a few simple steps. After logging in, tap “PAY/TRANSFER," at the bottom of your screen. Then select “SEND MONEY WITH ZELLE®” near the top of your screen and accept the terms and conditions.4
We recommend enrolling with Zelle before you send or receive money — this will help you send or get your first payment faster.
