Getting started with Zelle®

To get started, log in to Webster's online banking. To enroll a business bank account with Zelle®, you must use a different U.S. mobile number or email address than the one you used to enroll your personal bank account with Zelle®. For example, [email protected] would be connected to your personal checking account, and 555-555-1234 would be connected to your business bank account.

Eligible business accounts can send, receive, or request money with Zelle®. To get started, log into Webster Bank’s online banking or mobile app and select “Send Money with Zelle®.” If you don’t see Zelle®, please call our Client Services team at 800.482.2220.

Using Zelle®

To receive money using Zelle® with a business account, share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number with your customers and ask them to send you payment with Zelle® right from their banking app. No need to share any sensitive account details. After the consumer sends you payment with Zelle®, you will receive your money directly into your enrolled bank account.

There are a few ways you can encourage your customers to pay you with Zelle®.
  • Tell customers verbally that you accept payments with Zelle®, and that they can easily send you money right from their banking app.
  • Include it on an invoice. We recommend adding "I accept payments with Zelle®" or “Pay me with Zelle®."
  • Use Zelle® to request money from your customers (which will send them a notification telling them you've requested payment with Zelle®).2

To request money using Zelle® with a business account, click “Send Money with Zelle®,” select “Request,” enter the individual’s email address or U.S. mobile number, confirm the recipient is correct and tap “Request.” 2

If your customer is using Zelle® through their banking app, they’ll be able to pay you with Zelle®. You’ll receive a payment notification once your customer has sent you money in response to your request. If your customer is enrolled in the Zelle® app, they will not be able to send you money with Zelle®, and you should arrange for a different payment method.

Whether you use Zelle® with a business account or a consumer account, Zelle® uses the same network to initiate payments to businesses and consumers. Consumers who are already enrolled with Zelle® through their mobile banking app don't need to do anything different to send money to a business – they use the existing Zelle® experience they already know and trust within their bank's mobile app.1

As a current Zelle® user, once you log in and accept new Terms of Service, any of your email addresses or U.S. mobile numbers associated with a business account will be recognized as businesses in Zelle®. There's no need to re-enroll or take additional action to continue using Zelle®. Your current activity, pending payments and recurring payments will not be affected.

No, Zelle® does not integrate directly with accounting software at this time. However, since Zelle® is connected to your bank account, you are able to see all Zelle® transactions in your online banking transaction records. If your bank account transactions feed into accounting software, you will see the Zelle® transactions.

No, Zelle® payments cannot be reversed.

You can only cancel a payment if the business or consumer 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 Client Services team at 800.482.2220 for assistance with canceling the pending payment.

If you send money to a business or consumer that has already enrolled with Zelle®, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled.

If you sent money to the wrong person, please immediately call our Client Services team at 800.482.2220 to determine what options are available.
