Zelle^® is a fast, safe and easy way to send money directly between almost any bank account in the U.S., typically within minutes.¹ With just an email address or U.S. mobile phone number, you can send money to people you trust, regardless of where they bank.¹

 

 

You can send, request, or receive money with Zelle^®. To get started, log into online or mobile banking and select “Transfers” > Zelle^®. Following the prompts, enter the information requested, accept the terms and conditions, and you’re ready to start sending and receiving with Zelle^®.

To send money using Zelle^®, simply select someone from your mobile device’s contacts (or add a trusted recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile phone number), add the amount you’d like to send and an optional note, review, then hit “Send.” In most cases, the money is available to your recipient in minutes¹.

To request money using Zelle^®, choose “Request,” select the individual from whom you’d like to request money, enter the amount you’d like to request, include an optional note, review and hit “Request”².

To receive money, just share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile phone number with a friend and ask them to send you money with Zelle^®.

If someone sent you money with Zelle^® and you have not yet enrolled with Zelle^®, follow these steps:

1. Click on the link provided in the payment notification you received via email or text message.
2. Select Provident Credit Union.
3. Follow the instructions provided on the page to enroll and receive your payment. Pay attention to the email address or U.S. mobile number where you received the payment notification - you should enroll with Zelle^® using that email address or U.S. mobile number to ensure you receive your money. 

Find Zelle^® in the Provident Credit Union app, click “Send,” then click on the QR code icon displayed at the top of the “Select Recipient” screen. Your phone’s camera will open up. To send money using a Zelle^® QR code, you simply point your camera at the recipient’s Zelle^® QR code, enter the amount, hit “Send,” and the money is on the way!

To receive money, you can locate your own Zelle^® QR code by clicking the “My Code” tab. From there you can view your QR code and use the print and share icons to text, email or print their Zelle^® QR code.

You can also locate your Zelle^® QR code by opening the Provident Credit Union app, select “Zelle^®” from the “Transfers” menu. From here you’ll see your Zelle^® QR code in the “My Code” tab.

Money sent with Zelle^® is typically available to an enrolled recipient within minutes¹.

If you send money to someone who isn’t enrolled with Zelle^®, they will receive a notification prompting them to enroll. After enrollment, the money will move directly to your recipient’s account, typically within minutes¹.

If your payment is pending, we recommend confirming that the person you sent money to has enrolled with Zelle^® and that you entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.

If you’re waiting to receive money, you should check to see if you’ve received a payment notification via email or text message. If you haven’t received a payment notification, we recommend following up with the sender to confirm they entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.
