MoneyGram has launched a mobile money transfer service to enable US consumers with iPhone, Android and Windows 8 devices to use its website to send money, find MoneyGram locations, estimate money transfer fees and view recent account activity from their mobile phones.

MoneyGram is a money transfer company that provides bill payment services in the US and Canada and money transfer services worldwide through a global network of more than 310,000 agent locations in 197 countries and territories.

In recent news, MoneyGram and the International AntiCounterfeiting Coalition (IACC) have joined forces to protect consumers from retail scams by participating in the IACC Payment Processor Portal Program, which is aimed at preventing disreputable merchants from selling counterfeit goods by disabling certain payment processing channels, such as MoneyGram money transfers, to these merchants.
