6. How does Zelle work?

When you enroll with Zelle through your bank/credit union app, your name, your financial institution’s name, and the email address or U.S. mobile number you enrolled is shared with Zelle (no sensitive account details are shared – those stay with your bank/credit union). When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile phone number, Zelle looks up the email address or mobile number in its “directory” and notifies your bank/credit union of the incoming payment. Your bank/credit union then directs the payment into your bank account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.

Money sent with Zelle is typically available within minutes.

To enroll with the Zelle app, you will need to enter basic contact information, an email address and U.S. mobile number, and a Visa® or Mastercard® debit card with a U.S. based account (does not include U.S. territories). Zelle does not accept debit cards associated with international deposit accounts or any credit cards.

10.  If my bank supports Zelle and GFCMBC’s bank supports Zelle (and it does), I’m good to go, right?

Yes.  Just use your bank/credit union banking app with Zelle included.  Please use gfcmbcgiving@gmail.com to make your donation.
