To send money from Zelle to a bank account, you must have both the Zelle app and your bank’s app installed on your phone. First, link your bank account with Zelle by following the setup process in the Zelle app. Once your bank account is linked, you can send money directly to the bank account of the recipient by entering their email address or phone number, ensuring they are also enrolled in Zelle. The transfer is usually instant for enrolled users. Always double-check the recipient's details to avoid sending money to the wrong person.
