Global payments network spanning retail and digital channels for cross-border transfers
MoneyGram operates a dual-track payments infrastructure: a mature retail agent network (nearly half a million locations) running on legacy financial rails, plus a modernizing digital stack (Node.js, React Native, PostgreSQL, AWS) built for stablecoin and API-first transactions. The sales and marketing hiring surge (22 of 41 open roles) paired with pain points around agent retention and network expansion signals a pivot toward higher-margin, lower-friction digital channels while defending the legacy agent portfolio.
