Your Guide to Enrolling in Zelle with Truist

| How Do I Sign Up For Zelle With Truist |
Step 1: Are You Ready to Go Digital? (Engage!)
Before we dive into the technicalities, let's make sure you're geared up for this. Do you have a Truist checking or savings account? Do you have your U.S. mobile number or an email address handy? Excellent! You're already halfway there. Zelle works by linking directly to your bank account, so having an eligible Truist account is the first and most crucial requirement.
Step 2: Accessing Zelle Through Truist Online or Mobile Banking
Zelle isn't a separate app you need to download if you're banking with Truist. Instead, it's integrated right into their existing platforms. This makes it incredibly convenient and secure.
Sub-heading: Via the Truist Mobile App
- Download and Log In: If you haven't already, download the Truist Mobile App from your device's app store (Google Play Store for Android or Apple App Store for iOS). Once downloaded, log in using your Truist online banking credentials.
- Navigate to Transfers: After logging in, look for the "Transfer & Pay" or "Pay & Transfer" section within the app. This is typically found in the main menu or as a prominent icon on the dashboard.
- Find Zelle®: Within "Transfer & Pay," you'll see an option like "Send Money with Zelle®." Tap on this to proceed.
Sub-heading: Via Truist Online Banking (Website)
- Go to Truist.com: Open your web browser and navigate to the official Truist website (Truist.com).
- Log In: Log in to your Truist online banking account using your User ID and password.
- Locate Zelle®: Once logged in, look for a section related to "Transfer & Pay" or "Send Money with Zelle®." This is usually found in the main navigation menu or on your account summary page.
Step 3: Reviewing and Accepting the Zelle® Disclosure
Before you can start sending and receiving money, Truist, in partnership with Zelle, will present you with their terms and conditions.
QuickTip: Slow scrolling helps comprehension.
- Read Carefully: Take a moment to read through the Zelle® disclosure and terms. It's important to understand how the service works, its limitations (like not offering purchase protection for goods and services), and your responsibilities.
- Accept the Terms: Once you've reviewed the information, you'll need to indicate your agreement. Look for a button or checkbox that says "I Agree" or "Accept." This step is mandatory to proceed with enrollment.
Step 4: Enrolling Your Email or U.S. Mobile Number
This is where you tell Zelle how people can send money to you. You'll link a contact point to your Truist account.
- Choose Your Contact Point: You'll be prompted to choose either your email address or your U.S. mobile phone number to enroll with Zelle. You can only link one email address or U.S. mobile number to one bank account at a time for Zelle.
- Select Your Account: Next, you'll need to select the eligible Truist checking or savings account you wish to link to your Zelle profile. This is the account where money sent to you via Zelle will be deposited, and from which money you send will be debited.
- Verification Code: For security purposes, a one-time verification code will be sent to the email address or U.S. mobile number you've chosen to enroll. Do NOT share this code with anyone.
- Enter the Code: Enter the verification code into the provided field in the Truist app or online banking portal. This confirms you own the contact point you're enrolling.
Step 5: Confirmation and Ready to Send!
Once you've successfully entered the verification code, you'll receive a confirmation message.
- Confirmation Message: You'll typically see a message confirming that you are now enrolled with Zelle and ready to start sending and receiving money.
- Start Using Zelle: Congratulations! You're now set up. You can immediately begin sending money to friends, family, or others you trust, simply by using their enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number. You can also receive money from others who send it to your newly enrolled Zelle contact point.
