Hey everyone. I’m new to Zelle and someone wants to send me money. What steps do I need to take to actually receive it? Do I need the Zelle app, or can it work through my bank? And how long does it usually take?
Make sure your phone number or email address is registered with Zelle via the Zelle app or your bank app in order to receive money using Zelle. You will receive a notification as soon as someone sends you money. The funds are deposited directly into your bank account if you are already enrolled, usually in a matter of minutes.
You must register using your bank's mobile app or the Zelle app using your phone number or email address in order to receive money with Zelle. The sender can send you money once you've joined. The money is typically transferred straight into your bank account in a matter of minutes after they send it.
In order to get funds through Zelle, you can either tell the sender your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number, or if you are not yet enrolled, just follow the link in the notification to enroll and accept the money.
To receive money on Zelle, all you need is to register with Zelle using your bank’s mobile app or the Zelle app. Once you’re enrolled with your email or phone number, the sender can transfer money to you, and it usually arrives within minutes.
First, sign up for Zelle using the online banking or mobile app of your bank by providing your U.S. email address or mobile number. You don't need to do anything more after enrolling; funds sent to your enrolled contact method usually show up in your bank account in a matter of minutes.
