September 15: MoneyGram, a global provider of innovative money transfer and payment services, recently awarded the winners of its special promotion, which offered customers a chance to double their transaction amounts each week from May to July. The company has also announced the launch of a new special promotion during the festive season of Dashain.

“We are honoured to play a big part in helping so many people throughout Nepal send money to their loved ones both here and abroad,” said Sheshagiri Malliah, regional head for Indian Sub-Continent, Indo China and Malaysia at MoneyGram. “I’m happy that we could present the 24 winners of our earlier promotion with twice the amount of money they had received. We look forward to keeping this promotion going and celebrating with everyone throughout Dashain.”

Meanwhile, the company said the new promotion started from September 1 and ends on November 30. All people who are recipients of a MoneyGram transaction during this time will be eligible for lucky draw to win double the amount that they received.

“We’ve run this promotion before and it always creates a lot of excitement,” said Sabrina Chan, regional head of marketing for Asia Pacific, South Asia and Middle East. “Every week, we draw a new winner and it makes you feel good to see how happy this makes them. The joy that adding value to our customers’ lives brings is encouraging, and we’re grateful to be able to connect with so many people through this campaign and others like it in the future.”
