Send and Receive Money With Zelle^®.

Zelle^® is a fast, safe and easy way to send money directly between almost any bank account in the U.S., typically within minutes.¹ With just an email address or U.S. mobile phone number, you can send money to people you trust, regardless of where they bank.²

When you enroll with Zelle^® through your online banking account or mobile banking app, your name, the name of your bank and the email address or U.S. mobile number you enrolled with is shared with Zelle^® (no sensitive account details are shared).

When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number, Zelle^® looks up the email address or mobile number in its “directory” and notifies your financial institution of the incoming payment. Your financial institution then directs the payment into your bank account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.

To start using Zelle® with Gate City Bank, you must be enrolled in bill pay. If you aren’t already enrolled in bill pay, you can enroll by logging in to online banking or our mobile app, then follow a few simple steps. Once enrolled in bill pay, you can start using the “Send Money With Zelle®” tab, as well as tell us which email address or U.S. mobile number and deposit account you would like to use to send and receive money with Zelle®.

Zelle^® is a great way to send money to family, friends and people you’re 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 people you trust.

Neither Gate City Bank nor Zelle^® offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle^®. A good example would be if you don’t receive the item you paid for, or the item isn’t as described or as you expected.
