You can now send money internationally with Western Union directly from the Penny Pinch app.

Sending money with Western Union can be found under the 'Send' button or on the 'Home page'

Step 1. Begin by entering the currency, location and amount that you would like to send.

Step 2. Select how you would like the funds to be sent. We currently only support bank transfer to the USA.

Step 3. Enter receiver information and process payment.

You will be asked to enter information about the sender. This includes address, bank details (If Bank transfer is selected) and contact information. Once you complete this, you will be given the reference number called the 'MTCN'. This is to be sent to the receiver.
