Zelle FAQ
Common questions
Everything you need to know about accepting Zelle with NetValve.
Do customers need a Zelle account?
No separate account is needed. Zelle is built into most major US banking apps. Customers just need a bank account at a participating institution.
Is Zelle available outside the US?
Zelle is currently a US-only payment method. For international bank transfers, NetValve supports other A2A methods like iDEAL and Pix.
How fast are Zelle payments?
Zelle transfers typically complete in minutes when both parties use participating banks. Some transfers may take up to one business day.
Are Zelle payments reversible?
Zelle payments are generally not reversible once sent, which reduces chargeback risk for merchants. This makes it similar to a cash payment in terms of finality.
