When you enroll with Zelle® through the Bank of Clarkson’s Online Banking or BOC Go Mobile app, your name, the name of your bank and the email address or U.S. mobile number you enrolled is shared with Zelle® (no sensitive account details are shared – those stay with Bank of Clarkson). When someone sends money to your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile number, Zelle® looks up the email address or mobile number in its “directory” and notifies Bank of Clarkson of the incoming payment. Bank of Clarkson then directs the payment into your bank account, all while keeping your sensitive account details private.

You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn’t yet enrolled in Zelle®. To cancel, go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel and then select Cancel.

If you send money to a person that is already enrolled with Zelle® through their financial institution, the money is deposited directly to their account and can’t be canceled. If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back
