We respect the intellectual property of others and require that users of the Service comply with relevant intellectual property laws, including copyright and trademark laws. We may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, limit or terminate the use of our products or services for users who use or publish Content on the Service that is subject to intellectual property rights claims.

8. Receiving Money; Money Transfers by Network Banks

Once a User initiates a transfer of money to your email address, mobile phone number, or Zelle® tag enrolled with the Service, you have no ability to stop the transfer. By using the Service, you agree and authorize us to initiate credit entries to the account you have enrolled.

Most transfers of money to you from other Users will occur within minutes. There may be other circumstances when the payment may take longer. For example, in order to protect you, us, Zelle® and the other Network Banks, we may need or Zelle® may need additional time to verify your identity or the identity of the person sending the money. We may also delay or block the transfer to prevent fraud or to meet our regulatory obligations. If we delay or block a payment that you have initiated through a request for money, we will notify you in accordance with your User preferences (i.e., email, push notification).

If you are receiving a payment from a business or government agency, your payment will be delivered in accordance with both this Agreement and the procedures of the business or government agency that is sending you the payment.

9. Sending Money; Debits by Network Banks

You may send money to another User at your initiation or in response to that User’s request for money. You understand that use of this Service by you shall at all times be subject to (i) this Agreement, and (ii) your express authorization at the time of the transaction for us to initiate a debit entry to your account. You understand that when you send the payment, you will have no ability to stop it. You may only cancel a payment if the person to whom you sent the money has not yet enrolled in the Service. If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle®, either in the Zelle® mobile app or with a Network Bank, the money is sent directly to their account (except as otherwise provided below) and may not be canceled or revoked.

In most cases, when you are sending money to another User, the transfer will occur in minutes; however, there are circumstances when the payment may take longer. For example, in order to protect you, us, Zelle® and the other Network Banks, we may need additional time to verify your identity or the identity of the person receiving the money. If you are sending money to someone who has not enrolled as a User with Zelle®, either in the Zelle® mobile app or with a Network Bank, they will receive a text or email notification instructing them on how to enroll to receive the money. You understand and acknowledge that a person to whom you are sending money and who is not enrolling as a User may fail to enroll with Zelle®, or otherwise ignore the payment notification, and the transfer may not occur. The money may also be delayed or the transfer may be blocked to prevent fraud or comply with regulatory requirements. If we delay or block a payment that you have initiated, we will notify you in accordance with your User preferences (i.e., email, push notification).

We have no control over the actions of other Users, other Network Banks or other financial institutions that could delay or prevent your money from being delivered to the intended User.

10. Liability

Neither we nor Zelle® shall have liability to you for any transfers of money, including without limitation, (i) any failure, through no fault of us or Zelle® to complete a transaction in the correct amount, or (ii) any related losses or damages. Neither we nor Zelle® shall be liable for any typos or keystroke errors that you may make when using the Service.

THE SERVICE IS INTENDED FOR SENDING MONEY TO FAMILY, FRIENDS AND OTHERS WHOM YOU TRUST. YOU SHOULD NOT USE ZELLE® TO SEND MONEY TO PERSONS WITH WHOM YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR OR YOU DO NOT TRUST. ZELLE® DOES NOT OFFER A PROTECTION PROGRAM FOR AUTHORIZED PAYMENTS MADE THROUGH THE SERVICE (FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE THE GOODS OR SERVICES THAT YOU PAID FOR, OR THE GOODS OR SERVICES THAT YOU RECEIVED ARE DAMAGED OR ARE OTHERWISE NOT WHAT YOU EXPECTED).

11. Send Limits

Transactions made using Zelle® allow for one-time requests for processing. The per transaction limit is $500 per item with a daily limit of $1000, and subject to change, without notice, by the Credit Union. Your limits may be adjusted from time to time at our sole discretion. You may contact the Credit Union at 800.854.9846 regarding your transaction limits. At the Credit Union’s discretion, it may refuse to process any transaction that exceeds any established limits. If a transaction exceeds the established limits, you are responsible for making alternate arrangements.

12. Requesting Money

You may request money from another User. You understand and acknowledge that Users to whom you send payment requests may reject or ignore your request. Neither we nor Zelle® guarantee that you will receive money from other Users by sending a payment request, or that you will receive the amount that you request. Neither we nor Zelle® accept responsibility if the other User rejects or ignores your request, or sends you an amount that is less than you request. If a User ignores your request, we may decide or Zelle® may decide, in our sole discretion, that we will not send a reminder or repeat request to that User.

By accepting this Agreement, you agree that you are not engaging in the business of debt collection by attempting to use the Service to request money for the payment or collection of an overdue or delinquent debt; to request money that is owed to another person; or to collect any amounts that are owed pursuant to a court order. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Zelle®, its owners, directors, officers agents and Network Banks from and against all claims, losses, expenses, damages and costs (including, but not limited to, direct, incidental, consequential, exemplary and indirect damages), and reasonable attorney’s fees, resulting from or arising out of any request for money that you send that is related to overdue or delinquent amounts.

You agree to receive money requests from other Users, and to only send requests for legitimate and lawful purposes. Requests for money are solely between the sender and recipient and are not reviewed or verified by us or by Zelle®. Neither we nor Zelle® assume responsibility for the accuracy or legality of such requests and do not act as a debt collector on your behalf or on behalf of the sender of a request for money.

We reserve the right, but assume no obligation, to terminate your ability to send requests for money in general, or to specific recipients, if we deem such requests to be potentially unlawful, abusive, offensive or unwelcome by the recipient.

13. Transaction Errors

Notify the Credit Union immediately if you believe there is an error or if you have questions about your electronic fund transfers. You must telephone the Credit Union at 800.854.9846, log on to online banking and send us a secure message, or write to us at Kinecta Federal Credit Union, P.O. Box 10003, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266, as soon as you can, if you think your periodic statement for your account is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer listed on the statement. We must hear from you no later than sixty (60) days after we sent the applicable periodic statement for your account that identifies the problem or error.

When contacting us, please make sure to:

  1. Tell us your name and account number (if any);
  2. Describe the error or the transfer you are unsure about and explain as clearly as possible why you believe it is an error or why you need more information; and
  3. Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error

If you tell us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within ten (10) business days.

We will determine whether an error occurred within ten (10) business days after we hear from you and we will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to forty-five (45) days to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will provisionally credit your account within ten (10) business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within ten (10) business days, we may not provisionally credit your account. We will tell you the results within three (3) business days after completing our investigation. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.

*If you give notice of an error within thirty (30) days after you make the first deposit to your account, we may take up to twenty (20) business days instead of ten (10) business days to provisionally credit your account for the amount you think is in error.

**If you give notice of an error within thirty (30) days after you make your first deposit to your account, notice of an error, point-of- sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to ninety (90) days instead of forty-five (45) to investigate your complaint.

14. Your Liability for Unauthorized Electronic Fund Transfers

You are responsible for all transfers you authorize using the Service. Transactions that you or someone acting with you initiates with fraudulent intent are also authorized transactions. You understand and agree that you will be responsible for all transactions that you make and/or initiate, including fraudulent transactions where you initiate the transaction but are the victim of fraud or transactions you initiate in error. When you give someone your password or other means to access your account through which you access the Service, you are authorizing that person to use your Service, and you are responsible for all transactions that person performs while using your Service, unless otherwise provided for by applicable law. All transactions that person performs, even those transactions you did not intend or want performed, are authorized transactions, unless otherwise provided for by applicable law.

Notify the Credit Union immediately if you believe your password or other credentials to access the Service have been lost or stolen or that an unauthorized online transfer has been made from any of your accounts. Telephoning us is the best and fastest way of keeping your possible losses to a minimum. You could lose all the money in your accounts, (plus your maximum overdraft Line of Credit, if you have one with us).

If you tell us within two (2) business days after you discover the loss or theft, you may be liable for no more than $50, if someone accesses your account without your permission.

If you do not tell us within two (2) business days after you discover the loss or theft of your password or other credentials to access the Service, or that an unauthorized online transfer has been made from any of your account, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from making a transfer without your authorization if you had told us, you could lose as much as $500.

Furthermore, if any account statement shows online transfers that you did not make, tell us immediately. If you do not tell us within sixty (60) days after the statement was mailed to you, you may not get back any money lost after the sixty (60) days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from making the transfers if you had told us in time. If a good reason (such as a hospital stay) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods.

If you believe your password or other credentials to access the Service has been lost or stolen or that someone has transferred or may transfer money from your accounts using the Service without your permission, call: 800.854.9846 or write to: Kinecta Federal Credit Union, P.O. Box 10003, Manhattan Beach, CA 90266. For purposes of these disclosures, our business days are Monday through Friday, excluding U.S. federal holidays.

15. Liability for Failure to Complete Transfers

If we do not complete a transfer you send from your account in the correct amount or according to our agreement with you, we will be liable for those damages as the law imposes in such cases. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for example:

  1. If, through no fault of ours, your account does not contain sufficient available funds to make the transfer and the transfer would exceed any credit line or any overdraft for such account.
  1. The Service, your operating system or software was not functioning properly at the time you attempted to initiate such transfer and it was evident to you at the time you began the transfer.
  2. If you provide an incomplete or incorrect password, or you answer security questions incorrectly, or you do not enter correct login information supplied by us to authenticate your identity, or because your password has been repeatedly entered incorrectly, or you have not properly followed any applicable computer, Internet, or Credit Union instructions for making transfers or using the Service.
  3. If the funds in your account are subject to an uncollected funds hold, legal process or other circumstances restricting such transaction or payment.
  1. If your account is closed or if it has been frozen.
  2. If we received incorrect or incomplete information from third parties.
  1. If you, or anyone you allow to access the Service, commits any fraud or violates any law or regulation or if any transaction is prohibited by law, regulation, court order, or would be considered illegal activity.
  1. If our failure to complete the transaction is done to protect the security of your account and/or the Service.
  2. If the payee mishandles or delays a payment sent through the Service.
  3. If delays in processing and/or payment are caused by third-party software and/or services.
  4. Circumstances beyond our control, such as fires, floods, acts of God, power outages and the like.
  1. If you have not provided us with complete and correct transfer information, including without limitation the financial institution name and account number (if applicable), the email address or mobile phone number of the recipient for transfers you send and transfer amount for a transfer. 


The list of examples set out in this Section is meant to illustrate circumstances under which we would not be liable for failing to make a transfer and is not intended to list all of the circumstances for which we would not be liable. Provided that no exceptions are applicable, if we cause an incorrect amount of funds to be removed from your account, or cause funds from your account to be directed to a person or entity which does not comply with your transfer or payment instructions, we will be responsible for returning the improperly transferred funds to your account and for directing to the proper recipient any previously misdirected transfers.

16. Fees

The Credit Union does not charge a fee for using Zelle®. However, fees associated with text messaging may be assessed by your mobile carrier and data rates may apply. In addition, fees may apply if you use Zelle® through another institution or through Zelle®’s separate transfer service website or mobile app. The Credit Union reserves the right to assess fees in connection with the Zelle® service or other transfer services in the future. If the Credit Union does assess fees, they will give you reasonable notice as required by law and they may deduct any applicable fees from the funding account used for the transfer transaction.

17. Use of Our On-line Banking Site and/or Mobile App

You agree to access this website and/or mobile app in compliance with our Electronic Services Agreement and Disclosure, which are available at Electronic Services Agreement and Disclosure and incorporated into and made part of this Agreement by this reference.

18. Cancellation of the Service

If you wish to cancel the Service, please contact the Credit Union at 800.854.9846, log on to online banking and send a secure message, or visit any branch location for assistance. Any payment(s) that have begun processing before the requested cancellation date will be processed by the Credit Union. You agree that the Credit Union may terminate or suspend your use of the Service at any time and for any reason. Neither termination, cancellation, nor suspension shall affect your liability or obligations under this Agreement.

19. Right to Terminate Access

In the event you violate any terms of this Agreement or there are unauthorized fraudulent transactions related to your account or the Credit Union incurs problems with your use of the Service, you agree that the Credit Union, in its sole discretion, at any time and without prior notice, may suspend or terminate your access to the Service.
