DALLAS, April 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MoneyGram, a leading global payments network for consumers, businesses and communities, today announced it has been named a winner of the 2026 USA TODAY Top Workplaces USA award, marking the fifth consecutive year the company has earned this recognition.

Culture Built on Ownership, Speed and Impact

At MoneyGram, employees take ownership, move with speed and deliver meaningful impact for customers. The culture is grounded in a clear mission: to make the movement of money across borders seamless, affordable and secure for everyone around the world.

"Winning this award five years in a row tells me our people believe in what we're building," said Anthony Soohoo, MoneyGram Chairman and CEO. "At MoneyGram, we're transforming how money moves for the billions of people who rely on cross-border payments. That mission attracts people who think boldly, move quickly and want their work to matter."

Amid the MoneyGram global network, which spans nearly 500,000 retail locations and billions of digital endpoints, its people are the driving force behind its success. MoneyGram supports employees with a flexible, remote-first approach to work, competitive benefits and programs designed to promote well-being, growth and long-term success. The company also continues to invest in next-generation tools that help employees expand their capabilities, accelerate learning and grow in new ways.

"When an organization brings together a strong sense of purpose, an energizing culture and true flexibility in how and where work gets done, it creates an environment that attracts and retains great people while empowering them to do their best work," said Jillian Slagter, MoneyGram Chief People Officer. "I'm proud of the culture we've built at MoneyGram and how it drives real results for our global customers."

Product-Led Fintech Driving Real-World Innovation
