Here’s part one of the tutorial videos:

Western Union Reputatoin
I was discussing Western Union with someone deeply involved in the money transfer market just recently over coffee. This is someone who works in the middle layer of the transfers between the larger corporates and the transfer houses helping to connect the two systems.
It was interesting to hear him say that Western Union have a reputation for Read the rest of this entry »
Money Transfer Methods
One of the more requested items on OMT is when people ask if we could list all of the money transfer methods that are available online at the moment.
Realistically the entire site here is about these different money transfer methods so there’s been a reluctance to write a specific piece of information about the methods that are on offer in one single place as it really should be giving a complete list of all of the information that we’ve had so far.
However, there have been enough requests, so here goes with the list of methods for transferring money that are currently Read the rest of this entry »
FX trading for money transfer
When you’re looking for a place to transfer your money online it can be easy to end up on an FX trading site trying to decide if this is the right place for you to deposit money to get it to another place.

While some companies that are FX traders will also Read the rest of this entry »
Global Giving Online
Having a read through the Global Giving section of the corporate profile that MoneyGram Online provide to display what they are giving back to communities for all of the profits that they receive from transferring money globally is quite interesting.

PayPal Merchant Service Buttons
I’ve been trying to hook up the PayPal Merchant Services with one of my blogs at the moment so that I can receive money for a specific service that I offer online.
The simplest version of the merchant services that they appear to have is the “PayPal Button” which allows you to enter a lot of different settings into a button that is hosted directly by PayPal and is loaded onto your site via a piece of script.
While the system appears quite simple at the start, there are a lot of Read the rest of this entry »
Frozen NETELLER Account
I’ve used NETELLER on and off over the years for online gaming transactions and have an account that I hadn’t used for some time. Recently I went back in, used the account for a small value transaction.
All was going well and I was appreciating the sophisticated systems that NETELLER has until they froze my account for no known reason!
Half of the money is still in the account and I cannot get to it. I’m very annoyed about this frozen NETELLER account.
When trying to login all it says is that “for my protection” the account has been frozen and…

Money Service Press Releases
I’ve been looking around for online money service press release locations to see where another regular update for online press releases for the money services market are available but can’t find any.
It appears that if you’re looking for online money PR information then you’re best to go to sub-categories of normal online press release services websites sites and select their sub-categories. The example that I’ve linked to here on PR.co.nz would be the Finance Press Releases category.

Lucky Money Transfer
We always keep an eye out for new online money transfer sites we haven’t come across before and there’s a new one that I’ve just seen called “Lucky Money” which uses the tagline “the rapid money transmitter worldwide”. It has the Twitter and Facebook links so is involved in promoting itself in the social networks as a money transfer site and it also has a number of respectable client logos on the “trusted partners” section.
