Who can I send money to with Zelle®?

Zelle® is a great way to send money to family, friends, and people you are familiar with, such as your personal trainer, babysitter or neighbor.1

Since money is sent directly from your bank account to another person's bank account within minutes, 1 Zelle® should only be used to send money to friends, family, and others you know and trust.

If you don't know the person or aren't sure you will get what you paid for (for example, items bought from an online bidding or sales site), you should not use Zelle®. These transactions are potentially high risk (just like sending cash to a person you don't know is high risk).
