If you don’t know the person or aren’t sure you will get what you paid for (for example, items bought from an online bidding or sales site), you should not use Zelle®. These transactions are potentially high risk (just like sending cash to a person you don’t know is high risk).
Neither Crawford County Bank nor Zelle® offers purchase protection for payments made with Zelle® – for example, if you do not receive the item you paid for or the item is not as described or as you expected.

Therefore, it’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money. You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn't enrolled with Zelle®.
If the payment is still pending because your recipient has not yet enrolled, you may cancel it. To check whether the payment is still pending, 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 712-263-5685 for assistance with canceling the pending payment. Once a recipient has enrolled, they’ll receive the money into their bank account associated with their Zelle® profile. If the recipient doesn’t enroll with Zelle® within “14” days, the payment will expire, and the funds will be returned to the sender’s account.
If you sent money to the wrong person, please immediately call our customer support team at 712-263-5685 so we can help you.
