You can send, request, or receive money with Zelle^®. To get started, log into UKRFCU’s online banking or mobile app. In the main menu, select “Send money with Zelle^®.”

To send money using Zelle^®, simply select someone from your mobile device’s contacts (or add a trusted recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile number), add the amount you’d like to send and an optional note, review, then hit “Send.” The recipient will receive an email or text message notification via the method they used to enroll with Zelle^®. Money is available to your recipient in minutes if they are already enrolled with Zelle^®.

To request money using Zelle^®, choose “Request,” select the individual from whom you’d like to request money, enter the amount you’d like, include an optional note, review and hit “Request”. If the person you are requesting money from is not yet enrolled with Zelle^®, you must use their email address to request money. If the person has enrolled their U.S. mobile number, then you can send the request using their mobile number.

To receive money, just share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number with a friend and ask them to send you money with Zelle^®. If you have already enrolled with Zelle^®, you do not need to take any further action. The money will be sent directly into your account, typically within minutes.

If someone sent you money with Zelle^® and you have not yet enrolled with Zelle^®, follow these steps:

1. Click on the link provided in the payment notification you received via email or text message.
2. Select UKRFCU .
3. Follow the instructions provided on the page to enroll and receive your payment. Pay attention to the email address or U.S. mobile number where you received the payment notification – you should enroll with Zelle^® using that email address or U.S. mobile number to ensure you receive your money.

Zelle^® is a great way to send money to family, friends, and people you are familiar with such as your personal trainer, babysitter or neighbor.^*

Since money is sent directly from your Ukrainian Selfreliance Federal Credit Union account to another person’s bank account within minutes^*, Zelle^® should only be used to send money to friends, family and others you trust.

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).

Some small businesses are able to receive payments with Zelle^®. Ask your favorite small business if they accept payments with Zelle^®. If they do, you can pay them directly from the UKRFCU App or online banking using just their email address or U.S. mobile number.

Neither Ukrainian Selfreliance Federal Credit Union nor Zelle® offers purchase protection for 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. Only send money to people and small businesses you trust and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.

Please contact our customer support team at 215-725-4430. Qualifying imposter scams may be eligible for reimbursement.

In order to use Zelle^®, the sender and recipient’s bank or credit union accounts must be based in the U.S.

No, Zelle® payments cannot be reversed.

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 you do not see this option available, please contact our customer support team at 215-725-4430 for assistance with canceling the pending payment.

If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle® through their bank or credit union’s mobile app or online banking, 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 know and 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, please immediately call our c

No, UKRFCU does not charge any fees to use Zelle^® in our mobile app.

As of March 31, 2025, all users must be enrolled through one of the more than 2,200 banks and credit unions that offer Zelle^® in order to send and receive money. The list of participating financial institutions is always growing. You can find the updated list of participating banks and credit unions live with Zelle^® at Zellepay.com.

Zelle® QR codes provide peace of mind knowing you can send money to the right person without typing an email address or mobile number. Find Zelle® in
the UKRFCU app, click “Send,” then click on the QR code icon displayed at the top of the “Recipients” screen. Your phone’s camera will open. To send money using a Zelle® QR code, simply point your camera at the recipient’s Zelle® QR code, enter the amount and hit “Send,” and the money is on the way! When sending money to someone new, it’s always important to confirm the recipient is correct by reviewing the displayed name before sending money. You can also locate your Zelle® QR code by opening the UKRFCU app, navigating to “Send Money with Zelle®” and clicking your Zelle® settings. From here, you can see your Zelle® QR code.

More than 2,200 banks and credit unions across the U.S. now offer Zelle^® through their mobile app or online banking site. As a result of this growth, in October of 2024, we announced that we are removing the ability for users to send or receive money using the Zelle^® app starting April 1, 2025.

If you use the standalone Zelle^® app, you should have received messaging about this change through various emails and in-app notifications. To continue using Zelle^®, all standalone app users must enroll through one of the more than 2,200 banks and credit unions that offer Zelle^® through their mobile app.

If you are a standalone Zelle^® app user and previously received money from someone through Zelle^®, you may need to let them know that you won’t be able to receive payments until you enroll with a bank or credit union that offers Zelle^®.

To see if your bank or credit union offers Zelle^®, please visit https://enroll.zellepay.com.

If you’re already using Zelle^® within your mobile banking app, then there are no changes, and you do not need to take any action.

For more information, please visit our announcement from October.
