- Six to 40 characters.
- May include letters, numbers, and hyphens, but no other special characters or spaces.
- Is not case sensitive.
To start, think of a Zelle® tag that fits with your small business. For example, if your small business name is ABC Company, you might select abc-company as your Zelle® tag. Then, click "Settings", click "Create a Zelle® tag" and follow the steps to secure your Zelle® tag.

Then, enter the amount, hit "Send," and the money is on the way. When sending money to someone new, it's always important to confirm the recipient is correct by reviewing the contact name that is displayed before sending money.
