More efficient cross-border payments  

It is worth noting that both MoneyGram and Federal Bank are members of the rapidly-growing RippleNet network that boasts more than 300 members.

India’s Federal Bank entered into a strategic partnership with blockchain company Ripple in March 2019 to speed up cross-border payments and get access to new remittance corridors.

Last year, Ripple also bought a 10 percent stake in MoneyGram and paid the legacy money transfer player to use its software.
