Can I reverse or cancel a payment?

No, Zelle® payments cannot be reversed. You can only cancel a payment if the small business or consumer you sent money to hasn’t yet enrolled with Zelle®. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn’t yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel and then select "Cancel This Payment." If you do not see this option available, please contact our customer support team at (800) 527-3932 for assistance with canceling the pending payment.

If you send money to a small business or consumer who has already enrolled with Zelle® through their bank or credit union’s mobile app, the money is sent directly to their bank account and cannot be canceled. This is why it’s important to only send money to people you know and trust and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money. If you try to send money to a consumer who is enrolled in the Zelle® app, the payment won’t go through, and a message will pop up to let you know the payment cannot be completed. With small business accounts, Zelle® does not currently support sending or receiving money to users enrolled in the Zelle® app.

If you sent money to the wrong person, please immediately call our customer support team at (800) 527-3932 so we can help you.
