Since going public two and a half years ago, MoneyGram has made great strides by pouring energy and resources into several critically important areas for business. At the heart of MoneyGram is trust and reliability of customers. You can quickly send and receive money, as money transfers usually come to the recipient within 10 minutes. Until 2004, the owners of MoneyGram were Viad Corp and Travelers Express Company Inc. Millions of families depend on MoneyGram to safely send money home or pay the bills.
