Zelle® Makes Sending Money Digitally to Friends and Family Fast, Safe and Easy

ST. PAUL, Minn., April 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Alliance Bank, a community bank with over $630 million in assets, announced today that Zelle is now available in its mobile banking app. Consumer customers can send and receive money with Zelle for free using only a U.S. mobile phone number or email address. Funds are typically available within minutes when both parties are already enrolled with Zelle.

Zelle makes digital payments a fast, safe and easy alternative to cash and checks. Zelle allows for funds to be sent directly from one bank account in the U.S. to another. Consumers who are not enrolled and receive 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.

“Alliance Bank is proud to partner with Zelle to enhance our digital services product line,” stated V. Philip Reim, CEO. “By integrating Zelle into our mobile banking app, customers don’t need to remember a separate username and password to send and receive money, and they have the security of using Alliance Bank’s Mobile Banking app to manage their P2P payments.  We’re pleased to continue to offer new ways to make banking even easier for our clients.”
