Zelle is for PERSONAL payments only. It's for sending money to friends and family and people you trust and know. It's free for both the sender and receiver BUT you won't get any protection. Once it's sent, it's sent.
Don't people read? It's on Zelle's website "send money in minutes to your friends and family". I also asked my bank about that and got told there's no protection unless somebody hacked into your account. Yet, if you sent the money, it's your responsibility.
BTW: PayPal really sucks if you receive a lot of personal payments. I got my account frozen because PayPal got nosy and wanted to know more about 15 transactions. It took me a while to get my account unlimited. So, that's why I use Zelle for personal payments and use PayPal only for purchases. I would ditch PayPal but I don't have any option for now.

Nonetheless, I do accept Zelle for payments and also pay for goods BUT I know the people I deal with and it's mostly below $100. You can check out this link below. https://www.zellepay.com/support/im-unsure-about-using-zelle...
