ComBank rewards MoneyGram recipients

The Commercial Bank of Ceylon recently conducted a 'MoneyGram Happy Customer Day' at its Kotahena branch to mark the visit of the MoneyGram Regional Director and the South Asian team.

All customers who received MoneyGram remittances via the Bank's Kotahena branch on that day received gift packs.

The promotion coincided with the visit of the MoneyGram management to Sri Lanka for the ICC World T20. MoneyGram is the official money transfer partner for the ICC T-20 tournament.

Senior representatives of Commercial Bank and MoneyGram were present.

"Commercial Bank signed up with MoneyGram, the global funds transfer company, in 2007 to enhance its market share in the remittance business and expand its presence to other parts of the world, especially North America and Western Europe," a spokesman for the Bank said.

"It now offers remitters the ability to transfer funds quickly from a network of 275,000 MoneyGram agents in 192 countries and for payments in Sri Lanka to be collected at any of its service points. The Bank was adjudged South Asia's Most Productive Network for MoneyGram in 2011," he said.
