You must be 18 years old or older, and have a valid government-issued ID to send or receive money via Western Union (WU). Additional identification (such as proof of residency status or country of birth) may be required.
Your and the recipient's information depends on the sending or receiving method you choose in advance. If you have a WU account, most of the information you need will already be stored there. If you don't have one, have the following information nearby if you visit a WU branch or send money over the Internet.
The methods and information they require:
- WU.com or mobile app: your WU login information, credit or debit card information, the recipient's first and last name (as listed on their ID card), the recipient's country of origin and their full address.
- You can start online, finish at the store: your ID card to show to the agent at the store, cash or debit/credit card to pay for the transfer, the recipient's name, country and address.
- Transfer to a mobile wallet: Your cell phone number, the recipient's full name, country, address and cell phone number.
