“We placed a premium on finding a trusted partner that could deliver reliable and leading-edge technology to support our requirements for risk management,” says Scott Johnson, Head of Product Management at Western Union Business Solutions.
“Because BankFX is a cloud-based solution, we are able to easily integrate it with our proprietary systems to help us effectively manage Payments across our network, which covers 200 countries and territories and more than 130 currencies. Ultimately, this helps our clients effectively manage international payments 24/7,” he adds,
