Using the ‘Start online and pay in store’ service, you could save on transfer fees by paying less than making a transfer at an agent location. This is how it works.
When you start a money transfer at wu.com, the exchange rate available at that time will be the one that’s ‘locked in’ for 24 hours. Once you get to the agent location to pay the amount you wish to transfer, the exchange rate will be the same as what was available at the moment you started the transfer online.
When you start a transfer on wu.com and finish it at one of Al Fardan’s agent locations to pay for your transfer, you do not need to fill in any paper forms. You save a lot of time and get your money sent in a convenient way.
You can pay for your ‘Start online and pay in store’ transfer at any of Al Fardan Exchange locations in the United Arab Emirates from the list.
You will be asked to provide the following documents to complete the transfer:
After you finish filling in the details for your online transfer, a confirmation screen will appear. After you visit one of Al Fardan’s agent locations and pay for your transfer, you will be given a receipt with a tracking number (MTCN), and the transfer will be sent. You should give your receiver the tracking number (MTCN) so that they can pick up the money. When the transfer is complete and the money has been picked up by the receiver, you’ll receive a SMS or an email confirmation.
A ‘Start online and pay in store’ transfer can only be cancelled if the money has not been collected by the receiver in the destination country. The transfer is automatically cancelled if it is not completed within 24 hours.
