Allowing more ways for clients to manage money
KeyBank is now offering Zelle in the bank's mobile app and online banking experience, providing clients with a secure, convenient person-to-person (P2P) payment solution.
"We're always looking for innovation that makes it easy for clients to manage their money, including making personal payments. Partnering with Zelle is an important step for us. It demonstrates our ongoing commitment to identify digital payment solutions that we know our clients want," said Jason M. Rudman, director of KeyBank consumer payments and digital banking.
The Zelle Network includes banks and credit unions of all sizes. For more than 95 million consumers, Zelle is already available from the convenience of their mobile banking app, making digital payments an easy, fast and safe alternative to checks and cash. Zelle allows for funds to be sent from one bank account to another generally within minutes, when both parties are already registered and by using only a recipient's email address or U.S. mobile number.
"Our clients value payment options that are easy to use, safe and secure," Rudman said. "By introducing Zelle in our mobile app and online banking experience, we now offer our clients an additional, convenient payment solution they can use with confidence."
KeyBank's launch is supported by leading financial technology provider FIS, one of several providers that established strategic partnerships with Zelle.
