Western Union has
connected people
globally for more than
a century.
As a global leader in cross-border, cross-currency money
movement and payment services, Western Union offers a
unique platform, unmatched global scale and local market
knowledge to enable individuals and businesses to manage
international payments.
Moving money around the world looks easy: It isn’t. Businesses
from global banks to celebrated fintechs struggle to move
funds across borders, in near-real time, at scale and in
compliance with national and international regulations.
Western Union makes it easy; combining the required
licensing, a network that includes both retail agent locations
and account and wallet payouts; a settlement mechanism
that interacts with all these pay-in locations and calculates
currency conversions on both the send and receive ends;
tracking and risk-assessment technology to support
compliance with local regulations — to create the ONE truly
global money mover.
