(Nasdaq:EEFT), and a leading global money transfer provider, today announced the release of the new and improved money transfer site, riamoneytransfer.com to provide customers with a more user friendly money transfer experience.

• Mobile Optimization: The new site will now work seamlessly on any device, including mobile phones and tablets.
• Ease of Use: The design of the new site was developed with the customer in mind. From initiating a new money transfer, to registering and managing their account, the platform is fast, easy, and customer friendly.
• My Dashboard: Customers can now access information about previous money transfers, check the status of any current transfers, and easily save payment and recipient information for future use.
• Quick Sends: Simply by logging into their account, customers can quickly send money transfers to previous recipients with just two clicks.

"We're excited about the launch of our new, mobile-ready website," said Juan Bianchi, President and Chief Executive Officer for Ria.
