FIRST NATIONAL BANK AMONG FIRST BANKS NATIONWIDE TO JOIN ZELLE NETWORK℠
FNB to Provide Fast, Safe Person-to-Person Payments
First National Bank, the largest subsidiary of F.N.B. Corporation (NYSE:FNB), today announced that it will be one of the first banks nationwide to offer customers Zelle℠, a fast, safe person-to-person (P2P) payments solution.
Customers of banks on the Zelle Network can easily send and receive money using just a recipient’s email address or mobile phone number. Zelle enables funds to move directly from one U.S. bank account to another, with funds typically available within minutes. FNB customers benefit from FNB’s security and fraud protection because transfers are conducted within the Bank’s secure online and mobile banking channels.
“FNB has one of the most comprehensive digital product sets in the industry, and we are proud to enhance it even further with the latest in payments technology,” said Vincent J. Delie, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of F.N.B. Corporation and First National Bank. “By offering Zelle through our online and mobile banking channels, we will deliver the speed and seamless experience customers expect, along with the security and convenience of working with their bank.”
Lou Anne Alexander, Group President Payments at Early Warning added, “FNB is a proven innovator, and we are pleased to have a bank with their experience deploying leading-edge technology on board for the first wave of the Zelle launch.”
FNB customers will have access to Zelle via FNB Online Banking as well as the FNB Direct Mobile Banking App by early 2018. The feature-rich FNB Direct app gives customers the ability to review account activity, check balances instantly, make mobile deposits, turn their FNB Debit Card on and off with CardGuardSM, transfer funds, pay bills, find FNB locations and more. FNB Direct can be used by any FNB Online Banking customer and is free to install. It is available for download with Touch ID in the Apple App Store. FNB Direct is also available in the Google Play store. Message and data rates from mobile carriers may apply. System availability and response time are subject to market conditions.
The Zelle Network connects the nation’s leading financial institutions, enabling more than 86 million mobile banking consumers to send fast person-to-person payments to nearly anyone with a U.S. bank account.
