MoneyGram is one of the world’s leaders in international money transfer services. It is often compared to Western Union because it also has thousands of offices worldwide so that customers could receive the payout automatically.
The company was established in 1940 with the name Travelers Express. It has slowly developed as one of the most efficient company in the world expanding not only in US but to different countries. Today, it is estimated that there are more than 125,000 outlets of Moneygram in more than 170 countries.
The key feature of MoneyGram that has ensured its success is its efficient partnership with other money remittance and financial institutions in each country. Moneygram understands and respects the financial prowess of local companies especially in monetary transaction. Instead of competing with them, MoneyGram has partnered with these businesses so that they could offer remittance and also send money to different countries using Moneygram.
Aside from offering easy transfer of cash to different localities and countries, the company also offers prepaid MasterCard. It works just like a debit card but it could be loaded by transferring funds in different MoneyGram outlets.
