Xpress Money, one of the leading money transfer businesses, has launched its new iPhone application which allows customers to track their transactions via their mobile phones.

In addition, it enables them to find money transfer agents in their vicinity, calculate fees and charges they would pay per transaction and access the latest currency exchange rates, a statement from the company said.

Xpress Money’s iPhone app is the first in a series of mobile innovations that it intends to introduce to serve an increasingly mobile and technologically sophisticated customer base. It will also adapt to customer experience and feedback to come up with more unique product offerings, the statement said.

The app contains four key features within a clean-cut, simple user interface. The ‘Transaction Tracker’ is designed to help track an Xpress Money transfer with a 16-digit X-Pin number, providing customers with the luxury of checking the status of their money transfer even when they are on the move.

The ‘Find an Agent’ feature enables users to locate the nearest or most convenient agent using country, city and zip codes or the ‘Use Current Location’ option that provides maps and directions. The ‘Calculate Fee’ feature allows users to access competitive exchange rates, calculate fees and to estimate total transfer amounts.

The ‘Offers’ feature provides customers with up-to-date information on Xpress Money’s latest offers and promotions.

Sudhesh Giriyan, head, Xpress Money Business, said: “We remain committed to providing our customers with increasingly innovative and sophisticated products, services and applications. The launch of our exciting new iPhone app is a key component of this strategy. We believe it will greatly enhance the convenience of money transfers for our customers and will further strengthen brand loyalty and recall.”

The app is free and is available for download from the Apple App store. – TradeArabia News Service
