What if I want to send money to someone whose bank doesn’t offer Zelle®?
You can find a full list of participating banks and credit unions live with Zelle® here.
If your recipient’s financial institution isn’t on the list, don’t worry! The list of participating financial institutions is always growing, and your recipient can still use Zelle® by downloading the Zelle® app for Android and iOS.
To enroll with the Zelle® app, your recipient will enter their basic contact information, an email address and US mobile number, and a Visa® or Mastercard® debit card with a U.S. based account (does not include US territories). Zelle® does not accept debit cards associated with international deposit accounts or any credit cards.
How does Zelle® work?
When you enroll with Zelle® through Tri City National Bank’s mobile app, your name, the name of your bank, and the email address or US mobile number you enrolled is shared with Zelle®. (No sensitive account details are shared — those stay with Tri City National Bank). When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or US mobile number, Zelle® looks up the email address or mobile number in its “directory” and notifies Tri City National Bank of the incoming payment. Tri City National Bank then directs the payment into your bank account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.
Can I use Zelle® internationally?
In order to use Zelle®, the sender’s and recipient’s bank accounts must be based in the US.
Can I cancel a payment?
If your recipient has not yet enrolled with Zelle®, the payment will remain pending, and the money will not move from your account. If the recipient does not enroll within 14 days, the payment will expire, and the transaction will need to be made again.
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 send money only to people you trust and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or US mobile number when sending money.
If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back. If you aren’t able to get your money back, please call us at 414.874.2489 so we can help you.
How long does it take to receive money with Zelle®?
Money sent with Zelle® is typically available to an enrolled recipient within minutes.
If you send money to someone who isn’t enrolled with Zelle®, they will receive a notification prompting them to enroll. After enrollment, the money will move directly to your recipient’s account, typically within minutes.
If your payment is pending, we recommend confirming that the person you sent money to has enrolled with Zelle® and that you entered the correct email address or US mobile phone number.
If you're waiting to receive money, you should check to see if you’ve received a payment notification via email or text message. If you haven’t received a payment notification, we recommend following up with the sender to confirm they entered the correct email address or US mobile phone number.
Still having trouble? Please give Tri City National Bank customer support team a call toll-free at 414.874.2489 or get in touch through our support page.
Will the person I send money to be notified?

Is my information secure?
Keeping your money and information safe is a top priority for Tri City National Bank. When you use Zelle® within our mobile app, your information is protected with the same technology we use to keep your bank account safe.
What should I do if I’m unsure about using Zelle® to pay someone I don’t know?
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® for these types of transactions.
These transactions are potentially high risk — just like sending cash to a person you don’t know is high risk. Neither Tri City National 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 if the item is not as described or as you expected.
What if I get an error message when I try to enroll an email address or US mobile number?
Your email address or US mobile phone number may already be enrolled with Zelle® at another bank or credit union. Call our customer support team and ask them to move your email address or US mobile phone number to Tri City National Bank so you can use it for Zelle®.
Once customer support moves your email address or US mobile phone number, it will be connected to your Tri City National Bank account so you can start sending and receiving money with Zelle® through the Tri City National Bank mobile app. Please call Tri City National Bank customer support at 414-874-2489 for help.
