Western Union remittances now officially available via Zoompass

Western Union and EnStream have announced that the Western Union’s international money transfer service is available through the Zoompass Mobile Wallet Application.

Earlier, in September the two companies announced their strategic alliance to enable 23 million Canadian mobile subscribers to send Western Union Money Transfer transactions from their mobile phones to over 200 countries and territories worldwide, through the Zoompass Wallet.

"The EnStream and Western Union teams have collaborated over the past six months to bring this revolutionary mobile remittance service to market"

EnStream is a mobile-commerce joint venture company owned by Bell Canada, Rogers Communications and TELUS Corp.

Once a Western Union Money Transfer transaction has been initiated through Zoompass, the recipient can pick up the funds in cash at a participating Western Union Agent location. Subscribers of mobile operators with whom Western Union has launched the Mobile Money Transfer service can also have funds delivered directly to their phones' Mobile Wallet accounts.

This service is currently available on networks in 27 countries, including Smart Communications and Globe Telecom in the Philippines, M-PESA in Kenya and Safaricom in the UK.
