AgentConnect allows MoneyGram agents to integrate the money transfer service with their internal security and training processes. 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. The company installed more than 23,000 new MoneyGram signs around the globe, making it easier for consumers to find MoneyGram agents. Very intensive and focused approach has helped MoneyGram to grow business at a rapid pace and establish MoneyGram as a global player in the marketplace. AgentConnect continues to be an attractive alternative for businesses that choose to integrate their networks and point-of-sale platforms with the MoneyGram wired transfer.
