“In today’s MoneyGram earnings call, CEO Alex Holmes announced plans to expand use of Ripple’s on-demand liquidity to new corridors before EOY. ‘Our partnership with Ripple will be a competitive differentiator in the months and years ahead.’
According to MoneyGram’s Q3 2019 earnings call report, its innovative partnership with Ripple “is progressing.”

Says MoneyGram CEO Alex Holmes,
“Our third-quarter results reflect the continued transformation of our business as we increasingly focus on customer experience improvements, cross-border digital growth and industry-leading innovation through our strategic partnership with Ripple.
