international wire transfer service

WASHINGTON, Sure Money(R), the Postal Service's
international wire transfer service, also called Dinero Seguro(R), has
expanded its reach to Latin America and the Caribbean.
Available to Mexico since 1996, Sure Money now provides customers with the
ability to transfer money to nine additional countries. They are the Caribbean
country of the Dominican Republic; and the Latin American countries of
Argentina, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and
Peru.
Sure Money offers customers an affordable, quick, easy, convenient -- and
safe -- method of transferring money internationally. Customers can send up to
$2,000 per transaction by submitting and presenting the appropriate form,
available at 2,800 participating Post Offices. Identification is required for
transfers exceeding $1,000.
"Postal money orders have long been a favorite way for people to send
money to friends and relatives internationally," says Chief Marketing Officer
Anita Bizzotto. "And Sure Money provides an electronic alternative that
reduces the time it takes to receive the funds from days to minutes."
Sure Money uses secure, electronic wire transfers between the Postal
Service and thousands of participating partner branch offices in destinating
countries. The recipient's funds are available in the destinating country
within 15 minutes -- guaranteed -- and without hidden or additional fees.
"Customers trust the security the Postal Service provides," says Bizzotto.
"And with the expansion of Sure Money to additional countries, we can now
provide this trusted service to even more of our customers."
Personal identification is required for recipient of funds in the
participating country. The recipient does not need a bank account and pays no
additional fees in the destination country.
