Oh, and I had a family that resisted...just kept saying it was easier for them to write checks. I am sure it was but it wasn't easier for me so I just put my foot down and said here are your options:

Electronic payment via bank OR paper checks.

Of course there is a fee for writing a check though.... $10 additional for each check written. It covered, time and gas to go to the bank.

I used to use a deposit app where I could just take a photo of the check and it would deposit but none of my parents seem to know how to write legibly so the app constantly refused to accept the photo of their check and I got tired of the additional time it took to "fix" the situation.

Now my check writing family "insists" they had no idea how easy using Zelle really was... if they had known it was that easy, they'd have done it much earlier.

What they really meant was "now that you are charging me an extra $40-50 a month, it was motivation enough for me to figure out how to use Zelle"

Either way, I win.
