To register your number with Zelle, first, download the Zelle app on your smartphone or access Zelle through your bank’s mobile app if they partner with Zelle. Enter your basic contact information, including your phone number. You will then need to verify your phone number—usually through a text message code. Once verified, link your bank account by following the on-screen instructions. Ensure your bank or credit union offers Zelle before proceeding, as availability may vary.
