Sending money across the world quickly has never been easier.
Post Office customers in Luton can now send money to their families and loved ones in more than 200 countries and territories and in nearly 130 currencies using Western Union money transfer services available at local Post Offices.
Western Union’s cross-border, cross-currency money movement, payments and digital financial network connects consumers to billions of bank accounts, millions of digital wallets and cards, and a global footprint of hundreds of thousands of retail locations around the world. Money sent can arrive, depending on the location, even in real-time.
Western Union, as a global company offering remittance services to more than 100 million people, is committed to helping safeguard its customers’ transactions. In 2022, the company prevented $1.3 billion in fraudulent transactions, and it has reported consumer fraud decreased globally by 12%.
Graham Baker, Head of the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Nordics for Western Union, said: “Consumers across the UK, need flexibility and trust when they send money abroad. For their families and loved ones, the money they receive is often a lifeline – especially in the challenging times we are all facing across the world. And, with thousands of bank branches gone, some communities are entirely cut off.
“One of the best ways then to send money abroad is using Western Union services available at your local Post Office. Your money can arrive almost anywhere in the world – and you can trust that a company with more than 170 years of history will safely deliver your money.
“So, this holiday season, you can make a difference in your family’s life, easily, quickly, and securely!”
