CHICAGO – September 24, 2021 – BCU announced today that Zelle® is now live in digital banking. Zelle® is available in both online banking and the mobile app experience and enables convenient digital payments for BCU’s members.

Our members have been asking for this for a long time and we want them to know we heard them,” said BCU President & CEO Mike Valentine. “Adding access to Zelle® is yet another way we’ll be able to always serve our members, no matter how they choose to interact with us.”


The Zelle Network® includes financial institutions of all sizes. For more than 140 million consumers, Zelle® is already available from the convenience of their mobile banking app, making digital payments a fast, safe and easy alternative to cash and checks. Money sent with Zelle® goes directly from one bank account in the United States to another, using only a recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile number. Funds are typically available within minutes when both parties are already enrolled with Zelle®. Consumers who are not enrolled and receive a payment notification or a request for payment can enroll through their financial institution or by downloading the Zelle® app if their financial institution does not participate. Consumers should only use Zelle® to send and receive money with friends, family and people they know and trust.


Zelle® will be offered to BCU members free of charge, and, as part of BCU’s digital services, enable members to decide how they choose to interact.
