Zelle is a service that offers a free, easy, and secure way to send and receive money with others.

Although the service is seamlessly integrated as a money transfer service provider into many big-name financial institutions, if you use a more obscure bank or credit union, fret not — all you need is an email address or mobile phone number to take advantage of Zelle, regardless of who you bank with.

Here's how you can get started receiving money through Zelle in a few simple steps.

How to receive money on Zelle

1. If someone sent you money through Zelle, you'll receive an email or text notification about the payment.

5. Check the box regarding your data and privacy, then tap "Continue."
