How does Western union money transfer work please?
To answer your question, it can be done electronically. You can give them your credit card number and charge it to your account. Yes, they do tack on about 7-8 percent. They are up front about the charges. They will tell you how much the person on the other end will receive in what ever currency you choose. Thai Baht or US Dollars. Go to www.westernunion.com and follow the directions. You can also look up the closest bank that will handle western union transactions for them.

It is a simple wire transfer. Deposit money at any Western Union office, fill out the paperwork, and the money is immediately (within seconds) available at any Western Union representative worldwide.

Western Union is too expensive. I would recomend Money Gram. It is just as fast and much cheaper. They have many local offices. If you are transfering a large amount, over $ 10,000.00. I would recomend a bank to bank wire transfer. At my bank it is a flat $ 45.00 fee for any amount. https://www.emoneygram.com/eMoneyGram/in… To use Western Union, just call, give your credit card number, amount to send, name of person to send to, and it is available in minutes, in the other country. The charge to send increase with the amount sent. You can call to get the charge for an amount to send. It is an 800 number call.
