Union Bank of Nigeria Plc has launched the Back to School MoneyGram campaign which will run from August 25 through the end of September 2014. As the new academic year approaches, the promotion allows parents and guardians to send and receive money for school fees and other school related expenses through MoneyGram transfers from Nigeria or abroad.
Commenting on the campaign, Mr Olufunwa Akinmade, Head of Retail Liabilities said “Union Bank’s partnership with MoneyGram affords Union Bank’s customers a fast, safe and secure money transfer option to meet their personal and business needs, especially during this ‘back to school’ season. We are also using the campaign as an opportunity to reward our customers”.
As part of the promotion, customers who make MoneyGram transfers during the period receive an instant gift from the Bank.
Union Bank is able to offer this service as an agent of MoneyGram and the service is available to both customers and non-customers of the Bank.
