Company Overview

A closer look at Ria's history, mission and position in the global remittance market.

Ria Money Transfer was founded in 1987 with a simple mission: to give migrant workers a fair-priced way to send money home with peace of mind. Starting from a single storefront in New York City, Ria has grown into one of the largest money transfer providers in the world, serving millions of customers and moving billions of dollars in transfers every year.

Today, Ria operates through a network of 500,000+ agent locations across 190+ countries and territories. In 2006 the company was acquired by Euronet Worldwide, Inc., a global financial technology company listed on NASDAQ. The partnership has let Ria invest in technology while keeping its focus on affordable, reliable transfers for families worldwide.

Ria's omnichannel platform lets customers send money online, through the mobile app, or in person at thousands of agent locations. Recipients can pick up cash at a nearby agent, receive a direct bank deposit, or use a mobile wallet. With exchange rate markups of roughly 0.25–3.5% and fees starting at $0.99, Ria stays competitive while meeting regulatory requirements in every market it serves.
