How does the Western Union Money Transfer service work from an Agent location?
The sender initiates the transaction by completing a “To Send Money” form and paying the Agent cash to cover the transfer amount plus applicable fees. The Agent immediately processes the transaction. To pick up the money, the receiver completes a “To Receive Money” form at any Western Union Agent location and provides proper identification or answers a test question. The agent then pays the transfer amount to the receiver.
