If you have two different banks, like Wells Fargo and Chase, you can do a wire transfer which requires humans at both ends, hence the expense. You can do an ACH for free (just like bill pay), but the sending bank holds your money for two days. It's called (reverse) FLOAT. You can write a check for free also, but it takes days to mail & clear, and depending on the size of the check and your standing at the receiving bank, they may place a hold on the funds for however long the market will bear.

You can do Zelle transfers between different banks, it is instant, and there are no fees. Most major banks have it as an option/feature now on their sites/apps.
Only (potential) downside I can think of would be the limits, but mine is $5k/day and $20k/week.
