Total Wireless announced an expanded partnership with Western Union, bringing a suite of Western Union's financial services to its retail footprint nationwide. The services, which begin in select stores today and will expand to additional locations through the end of 2026, include money transfers, bill pay, and money orders.
Eligible Total Wireless customers on MAX 5G BYO, MAX 5G, and ALL ACCESS plans will continue to receive one fee-free Western Union money transfer each month. This benefit can be redeemed through Western Union's website, mobile app, or at participating Total Wireless stores.
David Kim, President of Verizon Value, emphasized the community impact: "Our stores are gathering places in the communities we serve. By adding Western Union to the retail experience, we're expanding access to everyday financial services for everyone. Whether customers need to send money, pay bills, or purchase money orders, they can now do it at Total Wireless, right alongside getting the reliable 5G connectivity they count on. That's what it means to put community first."
This retail expansion builds on Total Wireless's June launch as the first U.S. wireless carrier to offer monthly money transfers at no additional cost, extending the brand's commitment to delivering meaningful value beyond connectivity.
The services are available to all customers at standard Western Union rates. Eligible plan customers can enjoy one fee-free transfer per month, with exchange rates and applicable taxes/surcharges applying. The global reach of Western Union allows transfers to over 200 countries and territories, backed by a network of more than 360,000 payout locations worldwide.
Jesse Mory, Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Western Union, noted, "Millions of customers rely on Western Union to move money across borders with speed and confidence. By bringing our services to Total Wireless stores, we're meeting more customers where they already shop and expanding access to reliable, convenient financial services. This partnership strengthens our presence in communities where our customers live and work."
