Bringing you closer – this MoneyGram company slogan couldn’t have been more apt.
As a global money transfer provider that helps people connect with their near and dear ones around the world financially, MoneyGram is reaching out to its customers during the time of Ramadan with special gift offers to its remittance customers.
Customers sending remittance during this Holy Month using the MoneyGram service will get calendars, while the receivers will get a gift box containing treats that will have fruit juice, biscuits, five dates and a rear view mirror.
The timing gives the remitters a chance to reach out to their loved ones in a meaningful way, as the recipients generally use the gift of money to buy basic family necessities during the Holy Month, to hold Iftaar get-togethers, or for the Eid celebrations.
