Zelle at USAA

Zelle lists USAA Federal Savings Bank as a participating bank. USAA Federal Savings Bank sets its own Zelle limits.

USAA’s Zelle FAQ sets these sending limits: $1,700 in any 24-hour period, $5,000 in any 7-day period and $10,000 in any 30-day period, with up to 10 payments in 24 hours, 21 in 7 days and 90 in 30 days. USAA does not limit the amount you can receive with Zelle and charges no fee for it. An earlier, lower set of limits ($1,000 a day, $2,500 a week, three payments a day) still appears in USAA’s Send Money Terms of Service PDF dated April 30, 2025.
