History
Ria has grown to become the second largest money transfer service in the world.
In 2006, Ria was acquired by Euronet Worldwide, Inc., becoming part of its money transfer segment together with XE.
Ria began working with post offices in 2010 and on July 31, 2014, partnered with Postbank, which is owned by the Kenyan government. This allowed customers to send money through any of the bank's 99 branches, or receive it directly into their accounts.
In 2014, the company launched Walmart-2-Walmart Powered by Ria, a Walmart money transfer service within the US. The service allows customers to transfer money to and from more than 4,600 stores at competitive prices.

In 2019, Ria and Walmart partnered with Paypal’s Xoom to introduce domestic money transfer services. Xoom expanded to 60 countries in the deal with Ria.
As of 2020, Ria’s money transfer services are available at over 470,000 locations in 159 countries, online, and through their app.
Ria continues to expand into Latin America with the support of a joint venture between parent company Euronet and Spain's Prosegur Cash.
The Central Bank of Nigeria listed Ria as one of their approved international money transfer operators for diaspora remittances in March 2021. First Bank of Nigeria also works with Ria to bring remittances into the country.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, the World Bank released a report detailing the importance of remittances to provide a critical lifeline for vulnerable populations.
