SILICON VALLEY, CA (July 24, 2025) |
Meriwest Credit Union is excited to announce the addition of Zelle® to its suite of digital banking services, enabling members to send and receive money quickly and securely. Zelle is now available through Meriwest’s mobile banking app, allowing members to transfer funds to friends, family, or trusted contacts in minutes, directly from their Meriwest accounts to almost any U.S. bank account.
Zelle offers a seamless way to split bills, pay rent, or send gifts, with no fees for standard transactions. Members can enroll using their email address or U.S. mobile phone number and start sending money to anyone with a U.S. bank account enrolled with Zelle. The service is designed for convenience, with most transactions completed within minutes when both parties are enrolled, and is backed by strong security measures to protect members’ financial information.
“Listening to our members’ needs is at the heart of what we do,” said Lisa Pesta, President and CEO of Meriwest Credit Union. “The introduction of Zelle reflects our commitment to providing innovative, member-focused solutions that make managing money easier and more convenient. We’re excited to offer this fast and secure way to move money, enhancing the banking experience for our community.”
To use Zelle, members can log into Meriwest’s mobile app, navigate to the “Send Money with Zelle®” option, and enroll with their preferred email address or U.S. mobile number. Members are encouraged to only send money to trusted individuals, as Zelle transactions are instant and typically irreversible.
