Zelle can be used with nearly any bank account in the U.S. Most major banks offer Zelle within their banking app, allowing you to send and receive money directly from your bank account. If your bank or credit union does not offer Zelle, you can still use the service by downloading the Zelle app and linking a Visa® or Mastercard® debit card. However, the ability to use Zelle with any account depends on your financial institution’s participation in the Zelle network.
