Due to regulatory requirements and consumer demand in Germany and France, MoneyGram opened company stores in both countries. Money transfers can be claimed within 45 days, but if for some reason, this period is exceeded, the processing operator would need additional time to call the main office of the company of MoneyGram for voice authorization. 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. Millions of people around the world trust MoneyGram, as the wired transfer system provides its customers with a reliable, fast and inexpensive service. MoneyGram agents are located - in post offices, bank offices, supermarkets, and even travel agencies.
