The size of the commission fee for the transfer is charged according to the Western Union tariffs and depends on the amount of money sent. In 1933, by the Western Union Company were invented "singing telegrams". In the summer of 1990 top managers of the Western Union Company spent day and night in the main office in Englewood (Colorado, USA).

Western Union for more than 130 years provides money transfer services to its customers.
