How much does Zelle charge to send $1000?

Zelle usually does not charge a fee for sending $1000. In most cases, Zelle transfers are free for consumers when used through participating banks or the Zelle app. The main limitation is not cost but whether your bank sets transfer limits for that day or week. Some banks allow larger payments, while others cap how much you can send through Zelle. Because Zelle moves money directly between bank accounts, it is often cheaper than card-based payment methods. Still, your bank’s policies matter more than Zelle’s, so it is worth checking your transfer limits before sending a large amount.
