Zelle at Associated Bank
Sign in to Associated Bank Digital and choose “Send money with Zelle®” (in the app it is also under Transfer & Pay or Quick Access), then follow the enrollment steps. A payment to someone already enrolled typically arrives within minutes; the bank says it may take up to three business days. A recipient who is not enrolled has 14 days to enroll before the payment expires and the money returns to you. You can cancel a payment only while it is still pending because the recipient has not enrolled.
The Digital Banking terms say there are limits on how much you can send and receive, that the bank may adjust them, and that you can see your own limits after you sign in.
