Through strategic alliances with Walmart and Ria, Americans can now use Xoom to send money fast for cash pick-up typically in minutes at nearly 5,000 locations across the country*. Xoom's services potentially benefit more than 44 million foreign-born people in the U.S.1 who send remittances to family and friends in their home countries. With the introduction of domestic money transfer services, Xoom will now serve even more customers, including more than half of Americans who make domestic person-to-person (P2P) payments2. Using Xoom's mobile app or website, consumers will have the ability to send money quickly and securely for cash pick-up at any Walmart or Ria-owned store in the U.S. "Many of our customers in the U.S. already send money to loved ones in the country, and they usually prefer that the money is available right away," shared Julian King, Xoom's Vice President and General Manager. "This rollout reinforces our commitment to make money transfers fast, easy and affordable for everyone, whether they are at home or on-the-go." "At Ria, we are delighted to further consolidate our relationship with Xoom and Walmart," said Juan Bianchi, CEO of Euronet's Money Transfer Segment.
