LEAWOOD, Kan., Oct. 25, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ria Money Transfer, in collaboration with Walmart, today announced the
expansion of the Walmart2Walmart domestic money transfer service for customers seeking to send up to $2,500.
In 2014, Walmart and Ria introduced the Walmart2Walmart money transfer service to provide customers with a low-cost product that
allowed them to transfer up to $900 between more than 4,600 Walmart stores nationwide. Now customers wishing to send as much
as $2,500 can enjoy the simple, convenient, reliable Walmart2Walmart service powered by Ria, while saving more of their hard-earned
money. Sending up to $2,500 will cost $18 through Walmart2Walmart, while competitive offerings charge as much as $50 to send
$2,500.
“We have enjoyed working with Walmart to provide our customers with an easy-to-use product at a great value and we are excited
that customers will now have a broader product selection to enjoy the simplicity of Walmart2Walmart when transferring money to
their loved ones. We will continue to work collaboratively with Walmart to give our customers high quality products at an
exceptional price,” said Michael J. Brown, Euronet’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
Ria has been recognized as one of Walmart Services’ outstanding service providers, earning Walmart’s Service Provider of the
Year award in two consecutive years. These awards are a reflection of the high quality of the Ria services together with the
value the Walmart2Walmart product provides to consumers as well as the strong, collaborative relationship Ria and Walmart
share.
