Moneygram And Stellar Trial Live Cash-In-Cash-Out Project

The recent collaboration between the two corporate giants is yielding its first milestone with the trial of a live cash-in-cash-out project. Through this project, users can use any Moneygram center to fund their digital wallets.

The Key Accomplishment

Two months ago, Moneygram and Stellar disclosed that the two firms are collaborating to integrate their services for their users. This integration allows users to receive and make payouts and fund other wallets using Stellar’s stablecoin. More importantly, the transactions are completed in real-time.

This trial is the first output of the collaboration between the two companies. Likewise, users can change their Stellar stablecoin to fiat through Moneygram, provided Moneygram supports such fiat currency.

A Revolution In The Financial Settlement Space

Moneygram continues to evolve as new finance-based products and services are introduced into the market to meet consumers’ growing needs. So far, Moneygram’s international payment system is the only money transfer firm utilizing blockchain technology. The forex giants remain at the forefront of blockchain tech integration in their services by partnering with P2P firms that can help them improve their services.
