FULL STORY
======================================================================

If youre having issues sending money to your friends and family through your 
financial institution  maybe Chase, Bank of America, or TD Bank  youre not 
alone. Zelle, which is the company and tech that powers these instant 
transfers between banks, is in the midst of an outage. 

Much of Zelle's appeal versus Venmo or PayPal is that its instant, and no 
extra fees are associated with the speed. However, users have taken to Down 
Detector  a site that tracks outages  and social media platforms to voice 
issues with the platform. 

Reported outages spiked to over 1,000 at 1PM ET, and right now, as of this 
live blog starting, are circulating around 720 reports. Stick with us as we 
track this outage as it rolls on. 

It's clear that Zelle is having a rough day, here's a look at the reported 
outages thus far on Down Detector. (Image credit: Future) 

Zelle has confirmed the ongoing outage. Here's what a spokesperson shared 
with us: 

 We are aware that certain Zelle users at some financial institutions are not 
able to use Zelle at this time. This situation involves an independent 
third-party that provides services to particular financial institutions. We 
are working diligently with our partners to resolve this matter as soon as we 
can. Zelle users may see transactions marked as payment pending in the 
meantime. We will share updates as more information becomes available. 

It's clear that Zelle is aware of the issue and notes that it's worth working 
with various partners to resolve it. As with most outages, no exact timeframe 
is given. And if you can use Zelle right now through a bank, but it's not 
working as expected, you might see "payment pending."
