Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use a Zelle® QR code?

Zelle® QR code provides peace of mind knowing you can send money to the right person, without typing an email address or U.S. mobile number.

  • Find Zelle® in your banking app, click “Send,” then click on the QR code icon displayed at the top of the “Select Recipient” 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, 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.

How do I find my own Zelle® QR code?

To locate your own Zelle® QR code, click the “My Code” tab. From here you can view your QR code and use the print and share icons to text, email or print your Zelle® QR code.

Note: The QR code is not available at all Financial Institutions, or within the Zelle® app.

After scanning a Zelle® QR code and landing on zellepay.com, I located my bank, but it says the ability to use a Zelle® QR code is coming soon. Now what do I do?

Your bank or credit union does not offer Zelle® QR code yet. Until it does, you can still send money to those you know and trust by opening your banking app and sending money using the recipient's U.S. mobile number or email address.

When in doubt, open your bank or credit union app and navigate to Zelle®. If your bank or credit union offers Zelle® QR code, you will be able to click the QR code icon displayed at the top of the “Select Recipient” screen, scan the QR code and send money. If they do not yet offer Zelle® QR code, you can still send money the way you have before by using the recipient’s U.S. mobile number or email address.
