According to the report, the partnership has now enabled the customers of the bank to receive remittances directly into their bank accounts, which eases them of the stress of queuing in the banking hall.
Reacting to the new development, Grant Lines, the Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) of MoneyGram, said:
“Federal Bank is known throughout India as a pioneer in digitizing financial services, and we’re proud to partner with them to enable millions of people the option to receive money directly into their bank account. This partnership is especially important during this ongoing COVID-19 pandemic so families can receive money from the comfort of their own home.”
India Remains the World’s Top Recipient of Remittances
