Limits:
We may establish limits on the dollar amount and/or number of items or deposits from time to time. If you attempt to initiate a deposit in excess of these limits, we may reject your deposit. If we permit you to make a deposit in excess of these limits, such deposit will still be subject to the terms of this agreement, and we will not be obligated to allow such a deposit at other times.
Eligible items:
You agree to scan and deposit only checks (i.e., drafts drawn on a credit union, savings and loan or bank and payable on demand.)

All images processed for deposit through Mobile Remote Deposit will be treated as “deposits” under your current Account Agreement with us and will be subject to all terms of the Account Agreement. When we receive an image, we will confirm receipt via email to you. We shall not be deemed to have received the image for deposit until we have confirmed receipt to you. Confirmation does not mean that the image contains no errors. We are not responsible for any image that we do not receive.
Following receipt, we may process the image by preparing a “substitute check” or clearing the item as an image. We reserve the right, at our sole and absolute discretion, to reject any image for remote deposit into your account. We will notify you of rejected images.

If not provided in a timely manner, such amount will be reversed from your account. Promptly after the sixty (60) retention period expires, destroy the original check by first marking it "VOID" and then destroying it by cross-cut shredding or another commercially acceptable means of destruction. After destruction of the original check, the image will be the sole evidence of the original check. You agree that you will never re-present the original check.

We make security and the protection of your information a top priority. You can access our Privacy Policies at https://www.useagle.org/us-eagle/about-us-eagle/disclosures which the privacy policy is incorporated into and made a part of this agreement by this reference.
5. Wireless Operator Data
We or Zelle may use information on file with your wireless operator to further verify your identity and to protect against or prevent actual or potential fraud or unauthorized use of the Service. By using the Service, you authorize your wireless operator (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, US Cellular, Verizon, or any other branded wireless operator) to use or disclose information related to your wireless subscriber account (such as your mobile number, name, address, email, network status, customer type, mobile device identifiers and other device and subscriber status information) to U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union or its service providers, which they may use for the duration of your business relationship with them, solely to verify your identity and help prevent fraud. See Zelle’s Privacy Policy https://www.zellepay.com/privacy-policy for how it treats your data.
6. Enrolling for the Service
- You must provide us with an email address that you regularly use and intend to use regularly (i.e., no disposable email addresses) and a permanent U.S. mobile phone number that you intend to use for an extended period of time (i.e., no “burner” numbers). You may not enroll in the Service with a landline phone number, Google Voice number, or Voice over Internet Protocol.
- Once enrolled, you may:
- i. authorize a debit of your account to send money to another User either at your initiation or at the request of that User; and
- ii. receive money from another User either at that User’s initiation or at your request, subject to the conditions of the Section below titled “Requesting Money.”
- If at any time while you are enrolled, you do not send or receive money using the Service for a period of 18 consecutive months, we may contact you and/or take other steps to confirm that the U.S. mobile phone number or email address that you enrolled still belongs to you. If we are unable to confirm that you are the owner of the mobile phone number or email address, then you understand that we may cancel your enrollment and you will not be able to send or receive money with the Service until you enroll again.
- Once enrolled, a Z logo will appear on your profile picture for each U.S. mobile number and/or email address that you have enrolled with Zelle. The Z logo will be displayed to other Users to aid them in determining which of your U.S mobile numbers or email addresses should be used to send money with Zelle. If a User sends you money using a different U.S. mobile number or email address that they may have for you (one that is not already enrolled), you will receive a message with instructions on how to enroll with Zelle.
7. Consent to Emails and Automated Text Messages
By participating as a User, you represent that you are the owner of the email address, mobile phone number, and/or other alias you enrolled, or that you have the delegated legal authority to act on behalf of the owner of such email address, mobile phone number and/or other alias to send or receive money as described in this Agreement. You consent to the receipt of emails or text messages from us, from Zelle, from other Users that are sending you money or requesting money from you, and from other Network Banks or their agents regarding the Services or related transfers between Network Banks and you. You agree that we may, Zelle may or either of our agents may use automatic telephone dialing systems in connection with text messages sent to any mobile phone number you enroll. You further acknowledge and agree:
- You are responsible for any fees or other charges that your wireless carrier may charge for any related data, text or other message services, including without limitation for short message service. Please check your mobile service agreement for details or applicable fees, as message and data rates may apply.
- You will immediately notify us if any email address or mobile phone number you have enrolled is (i) surrendered by you, or (ii) changed by you.
- In the case of any messages that you may send through either us or Zelle or that we may send or Zelle may send on your behalf to an email address or mobile phone number, you represent that you have obtained the consent of the recipient of such emails or automated text messages to send such emails or text messages to the recipient. You understand and agree that any emails or text messages that we send or that Zelle sends on your behalf may include your name.
- Your wireless carrier is not liable for any delay or failure to deliver any message sent to or from us or Zelle, including messages that you may send through us or through Zelle or that we may send or Zelle may send on your behalf.
- To cancel text messaging from us, send STOP to 20736. For help or information regarding text messaging, send HELP to 20736 or contact our customer service at 505-342-8888 or toll free at 888-342-8766. You expressly consent to receipt of a text message to confirm your “STOP” request.
8. Receiving Money; Money Transfers by Network Banks
Once a User initiates a transfer of money to your email address or mobile phone number 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 bank 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 bank 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 bank 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. We are not liable for any damages resulting from the additional time needed to verify identities or for any time required to meet regulatory obligations. There is no warranty or guarantee that the transfer will occur in any given time.
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.
This 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 were damaged or otherwise not what you expected.
11. Send Limits
There is a limit on the amount that you may send using Zelle. To alter these limits you must call our service center at 505-342-8888 or toll free at 888-342-8766, verify your identity and the limits may be adjusted for all eligible accounts. Eligible accounts are any consumer accounts to which your Social Security Number is attached.
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
You agree to confirm all transactions before entering them. However, it is possible that errors may occur. You must inform us and Zelle of any errors occurring in these transactions within one (1) business day of any such error. You agree that such errors shall be dealt with as required by the Membership Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall amend or supersede the Membership Agreement.
14. Your Liability for Unauthorized Transfers
You agree that you, and not we, shall be liable for any transfers authorized by you, or which were able to be authorized due to you sharing your password, account number, or any other private data in violation of our Membership Agreement. You agree that you shall be liable for any errors committed by any party with whom you have shared this data. You agree that we shall be liable for any such activities.
15. Liability for Failure to Complete Transfers
We shall have no liability for any transfer which were not completed successfully. You agree that you, not we or Zelle, are responsible for resolving any payment or other disputes that you have with any other User with whom you send money to, or receive or request money from, using the Service.

You may cancel services at any time by calling the service center at 505-342-8888 or toll free at 888-342-8766. We reserve the right, but assume no obligation, to terminate your ability to use Zelle, if we deem your actions to be potentially unlawful, abusive, offensive, or unwelcome or for any reason at all at our sole discretion.

In those states where the exclusion or limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages may not apply, any liability of Zelle, its owners, directors, officers, and agents or the Networks Banks liability in those states is limited and warranties are excluded to the greatest extent permitted by law, but shall, in no event, exceed one hundred dollars ($100.00)
21. Indemnification
You acknowledge and agree that you are personally responsible for your conduct while using the Service, and except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, 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 attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising out of your use, misuse, errors, or inability to use the Service, or any violation by you of the terms of this Agreement.
22. Governing Law; Choice of Law; Severability
The laws of the state of New Mexico and the applicable federal laws of the United States (without giving effect to any conflicts of law principles in either case) govern all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement and all transactions it contemplates, including, without limitation, its interpretation, construction, performance, and enforcement. Any Party bringing a legal action or proceeding against any other Party arising out of or relating to this Agreement and all transactions it contemplates shall bring such legal action or proceeding in the Bernalillo County, Second Judicial District Court, state of New Mexico (the “Forum”). Each Party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (i) any objection which it may now or later have to the laying of venue of any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement and all transactions it contemplates brought in the Forum ; and (ii) any claim that any action or proceeding brought in the Forum has been brought in an inconvenient forum. If it is held by a court or other lawful authority of competent jurisdiction that any term, provision, covenant, or condition of this Agreement is illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision will be ineffective to the extent of such illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remainder of this Agreement; such remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, provided the effectiveness of the remaining portions of this Agreement will not defeat the overall intent of the Parties.
