You can make deposits to Checking, Money Market, and Savings accounts.
The Mobile App will allow you to deposit one check at a time. You can make multiple deposits in a day.
There are certain types of checks that are not allowed to be deposited using the Mobile App. Those check types can be found in our Mobile Deposit Agreement & Disclosure Statement. A check that has been presented for deposit before may not be deposited using the Mobile App. Attempting to deposit a check more than once or otherwise misusing the Deposit feature will result in revoked enrollment in the feature.
On the back of the check, sign your name as you normally would. The following line must be written under your signature: “For Mobile Deposit Only to Citizens Bank.”
If an approved deposit is made before 4:00 pm CT on a business day, the funds will be available the next business day. If the deposit is made after 4:00 pm CT, the approved deposit will be available on the second business day.
If your deposit is not accepted due to an error or an incomplete endorsement, you will receive an email notice from the bank informing you why your deposit was not accepted. You will have to bring the check into the bank to be deposited, as the same check cannot be re-deposited through the Mobile App.
You will be able to see your deposit when we complete our daily processing at approximately 10:00 pm CT.
Contact our Digital Banking Department as soon as possible. If the deposit has not gone through the approval process, we have the ability to cancel it. If it has gone through the approval process, we are not able to cancel it, and it will post to your account following daily processing.












You can send, request, or receive money with Zelle. To get started, log into the Mobile App and select “Send Money with Zelle®”. Following the prompts, enter the information requested, accept the terms and conditions, and you’re ready to start sending and receiving with Zelle.
 
To send money using Zelle, simply select someone from your mobile device’s contacts (or add a trusted recipient’s email address or U.S. mobile phone number), add the amount you’d like to send and an optional note, review, then hit “Send.” 
 
To request money using Zelle, choose “Request,” select the individual from whom you’d like to request money, enter the amount you’d like to request, include an optional note, review and hit “Request”.
 
To receive money, just share your enrolled email address or U.S. mobile phone number with a friend and ask them to send you money with Zelle.
You can send money to friends, family and others you trust.
 
Since money is sent directly from your account to another person’s bank or credit union account within minutes, it’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.

You can find a full list of participating banks and credit unions live with Zelle via the link.

If your recipient’s bank or credit union isn’t on the list, don’t worry! The list of participating financial institutions is always growing.

Money sent with Zelle is typically available to an enrolled recipient within minutes.
 
If you send money to someone who isn’t enrolled with Zelle, they will receive a notification prompting them to enroll. After enrollment, the money will move directly to your recipient’s account, typically within minutes.
 
If your payment is pending, we recommend confirming that the person you sent money to has enrolled with Zelle and that you entered the right email address or U.S. mobile phone number.
 
If you’re waiting to receive money, you should check to see if you’ve received a payment notification via email or text message. If you haven’t received a payment notification, we recommend following up with the sender to confirm they entered the correct email address or U.S. mobile phone number.
You can only cancel a payment if the person you sent money to hasn’t yet enrolled with Zelle. To check whether the payment is still pending because the recipient hasn’t yet enrolled, you can go to your activity page, choose the payment you want to cancel, and then select “Cancel This Payment.”
 
If the person you sent money to has already enrolled with Zelle, the money is sent directly to their bank or credit union account and cannot be canceled. This is why it’s important to only send money to people you trust, and always ensure you’ve used the correct email address or U.S. mobile number when sending money.
 
If you sent money to the wrong person, we recommend contacting the recipient and requesting the money back. If you aren’t able to get your money back, call our customer support team at 262-363-6500 team so we can help you.
