The company significantly expands its network in the UAE by activating the Western Union money transfer service on more than 580 kiosks – which are strategically placed in shopping malls, supermarkets, residential areas, banks, hospitals, government facilities, gas stations, staff accommodations and other locations across all seven emirates in the country.

The self-service kiosks allow users to process different types of payment-based transactions – such as utility bill payments or Etisalat, Du or Salik top-ups – in addition to Western Union money transfers. Western Union is the only cash to cash remittance service offered on these kiosks, and the customer will enjoy a complete Western Union look and feel on every screen till the Money Transfer Control Number (MTCN) is generated.
