Zelle^® is a fast, safe and free¹ way to send money to friends and family

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.¹

Since money is sent directly from your Ozarks Federal account to another person’s bank account within minutes¹, 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 Ozarks Federal App or online banking using just their email address or U.S. mobile number.

Neither Ozarks Federal 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 1-866-546-7408. 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, Zell^® 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 1-866-546-7408 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 customer support team at 1-866-546-7408 to determine what options are available.

Ozarks Federal does not charge fees to send or receive money with Zelle^®, but there is a $30 stop payment fee to cancel a Zelle^® transaction that is still pending because the recipient hasn’t yet enrolled. If the recipient doesn’t enroll with Zelle^® within 14 days, the payment will naturally expire, the funds will be returned to your account and no fees will be assessed.

Your mobile carrier’s messaging and data rates may apply.

The amount of money you can send, as well as the frequency, is set by each participating financial institution. To determine Ozarks Federal’s send limits, call our customer service at 1-866-546-7408.

At Ozarks Federal, there are no limits to the amount of money you can receive with Zelle®. However, remember that the person sending you money will most likely have limits set by their own financial institution on the amount of money they can send you.

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. If their bank or credit union is not listed, we recommend you use another payment method at this time.
