Who can I send money to?

Zelle^® is a great way to send money to family, friends, and people you know, like your neighbor, your roommate, or your babysitter. It's important to remember that money is sent directly from your New York Community Bank account to another person's bank account typically within minutes, so Zelle^® shouldn't be used to send money to people you don't know or trust.

Neither New York Community Bank, nor Zelle^®, offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle^® – for example, if you don’t receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.

Is there a fee?

New York Community Bank doesn't charge a fee to send or receive money via Zelle^®, however, there may be scenarios where using Zelle^® may incur charges.
If you send a transaction for which you have insufficient funds to cover the transaction, non-sufficient funds (NSF) fees may apply.

Mobile carrier fees may apply.

Is it secure?

Yes. When you use Zelle^® within NYCB Online or NYCB Mobile, your information is protected with the same technology we use to keep your accounts safe.

How do I get started?

It's easy. Zelle^® is already available within NYCB Online and NYCB Mobile. Just sign in online or the app and follow a few simple steps to enroll with Zelle^® today. We recommend you enroll before someone sends you money - this will help you get your first payment faster.

How does Zelle^® work?

Whether you enroll through NYCB Online or NYCB Mobile, we establish a connection between your email address or U.S. mobile phone number and your preferred checking.
Your name, financial institution name, and email address or U.S. mobile phone number you enrolled with is shared with Zelle^® (no sensitive account details are shared - those stay with NYCB). When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or U.S mobile number, Zelle^® looks up the email address or U.S. mobile phone number in its "directory" and notifies NYCB of the incoming payment. NYCB then directs the payment into your account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.

How do I send money?

NYCB Online: Login to NYCB Online and choose “Send Money with Zelle^®” from the upper navigation bar.

NYCB Mobile: Login to NYCB Mobile and choose “Transfer & Pay” and select “Send Money with Zelle^®”.

How do I receive money?

If you are already enrolled with Zelle^®, no further action is needed. If someone sends you money, the money will move directly into your account, typically within minutes.

If you have not enrolled with Zelle^®, and someone sends you money, this is what you need to do:

1. Click on the link provided in the payment notification you received via email or text message.
2. Select “New York Community Bank”.
3. Follow the instructions provided on the page to enroll. You should enroll with Zelle^® using the email address or U.S. mobile number on which you received the notification to ensure you receive your money.
4. In most cases, the money will be available in minutes.

Can I cancel a payment?

You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn’t yet enrolled with Zelle^®. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn’t yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel, and then select “Cancel This Payment.” If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle^®, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back.

How do I “Pay it Safe” with Zelle^®?

Only send money to those you trust. With Zelle^®, you can send money from your account to someone else’s within minutes. It’s a great way to pay friends, family, your coworkers and almost anyone else you trust, but it shouldn’t be used to pay strangers.

Beware of payment scams. If a deal sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Neither New York Community Bank nor Zelle^® offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle^® - so only use Zelle^® to pay people you know and trust.

Treat Zelle^® like cash. Money moves fast - directly into the enrolled recipient’s bank account. Always double check you have the recipient’s correct U.S. mobile number or email address, so the money goes to the right person.

I’m unsure about using Zelle^® to pay someone I don’t know. What should I do?

If you don’t know the person, or aren’t sure you will get what you paid for (for example, items bought from an online bidding or sales site), you should not use Zelle^®. These transactions are potentially high risk (just like sending cash to a person you don’t know is high risk). Neither New York Community Bank, nor Zelle^®, offers a protection program for any authorized payments made with Zelle^® – for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.
