Western Union is one of the best-known names in international money transfer, and in Malta its services are delivered through Fexserv, the company appointed as Western Union's Master Authorised Agent for the islands. Together they run more than 59 outlets and offices across Malta and Gozo, and this listing on Triq D'Argens in Msida is one of the places where you can send money abroad or collect a transfer sent to you.
That makes it useful for UK nationals who live and work in Malta, students, and visitors who need cash sent from home in a hurry. You will find it in our directory of currency exchange services in Malta.
Sending and receiving money
Western Union's network covers more than 200 countries and territories and over 550,000 agent locations worldwide, so the person receiving your money can usually collect it close to home. With Money in Minutes transfers, funds can be available within seconds of being sent in most countries. Transfers paid directly into a bank account may take longer, depending on how quickly the banks in between process the payment.
Every transfer is given a unique Money Transfer Control Number, known as the MTCN. The sender passes this reference to the recipient, and it is used to track the payment and make sure it is paid out in full to the right person. The service is designed to be simple enough for anyone to use, whether you are sending money for the first time or do so every month.
The Fexserv network in Malta
Fexserv is a Maltese money services company with its head office at Alpine House on Naxxar Road in San Gwann. Besides Western Union, it offers travel money, currency exchange, cheque services, SWIFT transfers, corporate accounts, One4all gift vouchers and Ding mobile top-ups.
Its own branches are in San Gwann, St Julian's, Valletta, Fgura, Mosta, Buġibba and Victoria in Gozo, and many other Western Union agent outlets around the islands sit within the same network. If you are staying in the north, the Buġibba branch is close to the hotels in Qawra and St Paul's Bay, and visitors to the sister island can use the Victoria branch while following our Gozo guide. Our Valletta guide covers the capital, where there is a branch on St John's Street.
Who uses it
Malta has a large international workforce, and many people use Western Union to send part of their wages home or to receive help from family abroad. If you are planning a move, our UK guide to relocating to Malta explains banking and settling in, and remote workers will find more in our guide to living in Malta as a digital nomad.
For larger or more complex financial matters, such as investments or pensions, Western Union is not the right tool. Our overview of financial services in Malta explains the wider sector, and firms such as Abalone Asset Management, a short walk away, deal with investment advice, and for bookkeeping and tax returns 3a Malta accountants are nearby too.
UK visitors may also find the wider Fexserv network handy for everyday money tasks during a stay: its bureau de change branches buy and sell currencies including sterling, US dollars and Australian dollars, and travel money can be ordered online ahead of a trip. Businesses can also open a corporate account with Fexserv.
