Zelle® is a fast and easy way for M&T customers to send money to almost anyone with a bank account in the U.S. With just an email address or U.S. mobile phone number you can now quickly and easily send money.

​With Zelle® you can send money to almost anyone you know and trust with a bank account in the U.S. You can send money directly from the M&T Mobile Banking app or in Online Banking.

Zelle® is a great way to send money to family, friends, and people that you are familiar with such as your personal trainer, babysitter or a neighbor.

If you don't know the person, or aren't sure you will get what you paid for (for example, items bought from an on-line bidding or sales site), we recommend you do not use Zelle® for these types of transactions. Neither M&T nor Zelle® offers a protection program for any authorized 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.

To get started with Zelle®, log into the M&T Mobile Banking app or in Online Banking and select Send Money with Zelle® to enroll.

You can send, request or receive money with Zelle®.

To send money using Zelle®, simply select someone from your mobile device’s contacts (or add a trusted recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile phone number), add the amount you’d like to send and an optional note, review, then hit “Send.” In most cases, the money is available to your recipient in minutes.

To request money using Zelle®, choose “Request,” select the individual(s) from whom you’d like to request money, enter the amount you’d like to request, include an optional note, review and hit “Request”.  In order to send payment requests or split payment requests to a U.S. mobile number, the mobile number must already enrolled with Zelle®.

To receive money, just share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number with a friend and ask them to send you money with Zelle®.
