MoneyGram announced that MoneyGram Ramps (Ramps) is now live on Solana, making its global cash and digital network available across multiple blockchain ecosystems as the company continues building an open, interoperable payments network.
MoneyGram announced the appointment of Will Karczewski as Executive Vice President and General Manager, Global Retail. In this role, Karczewski will lead the company's global retail and digital partner businesses, helping unlock growth opportunities across its global retail network while advancing the integration of retail and digital customer experiences.
MoneyGram announced its entry into the Solana ecosystem, reinforcing the company's commitment to supporting the continued growth of blockchain-based financial infrastructure. MoneyGram has become an active validator on the Solana network and joined Solana Developer Platform.
MoneyGram CEO Anthony Soohoo shares how expanding MoneyGram Ramps to Solana connects digital assets with real-world utility.
Wallets and apps built on Solana can now tap MoneyGram's global network to move between digital assets and local currencies. “Bringing MoneyGram Ramps to Solana is another step toward building a truly open, global payments network," said MoneyGram CEO Anthony Soohoo.
MoneyGram CEO Anthony Soohoo said the company's blockchain strategy is focused on modernizing cross-border payments, by using blockchain infrastructure to make remittances faster, cheaper and more transparent while keeping the technology invisible to customers.
A remittance is money sent from one person to another, usually across borders, to support family, friends, or a household back home. It typically moves from a sender in one country to a receiver in another through a bank, a money transfer provider, or an agent. Here is how the process works and what to expect.
Helping with school costs from abroad takes planning. Learn what education expenses to expect and how to send support to family reliably and on time.
If you’ve ever looked at the amount on your screen before tapping “Send” and wondered, Is this enough?, you’re not alone. It’s a question many people ask, whether they’re helping family every month or sending support only when it’s needed.
