Banks are created daily, and at the same time, more and more people are opting for new payment method options. This phenomenon has sparked the desire to have as many payment methods as possible, as long as they are fast and simple.
A very famous new bank is Aspiration Bank. We would like to know if it is possible to link it with the Zelle platform.
Can I use Zelle with my Aspiration Bank account?
The answer is no. Aspiration Bank has not been linked with Zelle, so making payments through it is impossible. There is no information about this on any of their websites, neither on the official Zelle website nor the official Aspiration Bank website.
Could I make my payments from Aspiration Bank to Zelle indirectly?
It is not possible. However, there are other alternatives you could consider when making your transfers. Your best option will depend on your phone and the app you like to use the most.
Through the Apple Pay application
As with Google Pay, you must first link your Aspiration Bank card to the app. First, log in to the Wallet app from your iPhone, iPad, or iWatch and select the “+” icon.
In this option, you will see all the cards you have available in your wallet, and you will be able to add a new one. Select the “Debit or credit card“ option, and here, select “Aspiration Bank” as your bank. Once selected, enter all the information requested.
Finally, you will be given instructions to add your card successfully.
Be aware that you will most likely be asked to verify your identity to add the bank account. This could be through an iTouch or a passcode. Otherwise, Apple will not approve adding the card to your account.
Through the Google Pay app
Google Pay will be your best alternative if you have an Android phone. You must log in to the Google Pay app and select the icon in the top-right corner of your screen. Once you have chosen your profile, you should see the option “Set up payment methods.” By tapping this option, you will be able to see all your linked cards and bank accounts in the app, and you will also be able to add new ones.
Go to the “Add credit or debit card” section and choose the “Aspiration Bank” option. Then you will have to enter all your card details, such as card numbers and codes. Once completed, you can make your payments through Google Pay.
Through Samsung Pay
The process is very similar to Apple Pay and Google Pay, but this would be your option if you have a Samsung device.
To add the card, open the Samsung Pay app. Then, tap the horizontal AKA menu lines on the screen and choose the “Cards” option.
Select “add card” and choose the “credit or debit card” option. You will then be shown the steps to add the Aspiration Bank card. Enter your card information. When you complete the steps, you will be shown the company’s terms and conditions, which you can read and then accept. Once you have followed the steps, you can start making payments through Samsung Pay.
