The holidays are approaching, and all year long, you’ve heard your parents talk about wanting a certain something. You know they’d never go out and buy it for themselves, so it’s the perfect present to surprise them with this year. Unfortunately, the price tag is a bit frightful.

This year, go in on gifts with others and split the cost of the bill!

Using Zelle® to Get Paid Back is so Delightful

Splitting the cost of a big gift with your siblings is easy with Zelle_®. Use Zelle_® to easily send a request¹ for the money you’re owed, and your sibling can quickly send you money right from their mobile banking app, even if you bank at different places.² And the best part is, money sent with Zelle_® goes directly into your account and is available to spend in minutes.²

How to Request Money for the Group Gift

Step 1: Log into the Credit Union of Denver App.

Step 2: In the main menu, select “Zelle_®”.

Step 3: Select “Request money with Zelle_®”.

Step 4: Enroll your email address or mobile number.

Step 5: Once you’ve enrolled, select your recipient (by entering their email address or mobile number), then type in the requested amount, add a little note such as “Mom and Dad’s Gift,” and click “Request”.

Pro-tip: For an even easier experience, have them enroll with Zelle_® at zellepay.com/get-started before sending your first request. You can send money to someone not yet enrolled, and they’ll get an email with instructions on how to do so. That’s it! No need to ask your siblings to run to the ATM or search for that checkbook they never use.

¹ Payment requests to persons not already enrolled with Zelle_® must be sent to an email address.
² To send or receive money with Zelle_®, both parties must have an eligible checking or savings account. Transactions between enrolled users typically occur in minutes.
