The partnership enables the Regions Bank account holders and walk-in consumers with the ability to send and receive domestic or international money transfers and make same-day payments to members of Western Union’s Biller network.
Regions Bank head of consumer services John Owen said the agreement with Western Union will allow the bank to offer a broader suite of products and services to meet the needs of customers and communities.
Western Union said the services will be available later this year at Regions Bank branches in the 16 states the bank serves. Plans also include offering Western Union online services to Regions Bank online customers.
Regions serves customers in 16 states across the South, Midwest and Texas, and through its subsidiary, Regions Bank, operates approximately 1,800 banking offices and 2,200 ATMs.
