If the person you are requesting money from is not yet enrolled with Zelle^®, you must use their email address to request money. If the person has enrolled their U.S. mobile number, then you can send the request using their mobile number.

If you have already enrolled with Zelle^®, you do not need to take any further action. The money will be sent directly into your account, typically within minutes.

2. Select California Credit Union.
3. Follow the instructions provided on the page to enroll and receive your payment.

Keeping your money and information safe is a top priority for California Credit Union. When you use Zelle^® within our mobile app or online banking, your information is protected with the same technology we use to keep your bank account safe.

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 minutes¹, Zelle^® should only be used to send money to friends, family and others you 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).

Neither California Credit Union nor Zelle^® offers protection for any payments made with Zelle^® for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.

You can find a full list of participating banks and credit unions live with Zelle^® here.

If your recipient s financial institution isn t on the list, don t worry! The list of participating financial institutions is always growing, and your recipient can still use Zelle^® by downloading the Zelle^® app for Android and iOS.

To enroll with the Zelle^® app, your recipient will enter their 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.

To use Zelle^®, the sender and recipient s bank accounts must be based in the U.S.

You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn t yet enrolled with Zelle^®. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn t yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel, and then select Cancel This Payment.

If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle^®, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it s important to only send money to people you know and trust, and always ensure you ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

If you sent money to the wrong person, please immediately call member services at (800) 334-8788 so we can help you.

We offer you the flexibility to schedule payments to be sent at a later date if you like, or even set up recurring payments for things like regularly sending money to your college student.

Scheduled or recurring payments sent directly to your recipient s account number (instead of an email address or mobile number) are made available by California Credit Union but are a separate service from Zelle^® and can take 1 3 business days to process.

You can cancel a payment that is scheduled in advance if the money has not already been deducted from your account.

No, California Credit Union does not charge any fees to use Zelle^®.
Your mobile carrier s messaging and data rates may apply. California Credit Union does not charge fees to send or receive money with Zelle^®, but there is a fee to cancel a Zelle^® transaction that is still pending because the recipient hasn t yet enrolled.
