The benefits of money transfers by MoneyGram: no fixup (the recipient may request payment at any MoneyGram agent in the country of receiving). In due time MoneyGram separated from the Western Union and became an independent brand. As part of the 2008 Recapitalization, our wholly owned subsidiary, MoneyGram Payment Systems Worldwide, Inc., issued Goldman Sachs $500.0 million of senior secured second lien notes with a 10-year maturity. How to obtain the money? You go to any branch or affiliate partner of MoneyGram, show your identity document, fill in the letterhead, which specify a the transfer code and get the money. MoneyGram completed the rollout of simplified pricing for money transfer services in the U.S., an initiative that began last year.
