The benefits of money transfers by MoneyGram: there is no need to open a checking account when implementing the transfer. MoneyGram completed the acquisition of MoneyCard World Express, S.A. (MoneyCard) and Cambios Sol, S.A., two money transfer super-agents located in Spain. 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. Until 2004, the owners of MoneyGram were Viad Corp and Travelers Express Company Inc. Keep in mind that if your locality there are several banks, working with MoneyGram and you will convert the currency received, before receiving check currency rates in several points - they can vary.
