Zelle is a peer-to-peer payment tool that allows users to quickly send money between U.S. bank accounts. Once you enroll your email or U.S. mobile number in Zelle through your mobile banking app, you can send money to friends and family with just a tap. While sending and receiving limits vary by bank, one key advantage Zelle has compared to apps like Venmo or Cash App is that it does not charge a fee for instant transfers.

Both cards have the same rewards structure — including boosted rewards for dining and gas purchases — and both cards have no annual fee or foreign transaction fees. The Discover it® Secured Credit Card, however, requires a security deposit to open — but unlike the Student Chrome, it’s also available to people who aren’t students.
