Tanmeyah Micro Enterprise Services has entered into an agreement with the Arab African International Bank (AAIB) to offer money transfer and ATM services in Egypt.

Microenterprise specialist Tanmeyah, a Western Union agent in Egypt, and the AAIB, will offer the services throughout 30 of Tanmeyah’s branches spread across the country.

Tanmeyah CEO Amr Abu al-‘Ish said that the service has already been launched at 12 branches of the company so far, with four new ATMs currently being used to provide a number of banking services for the AAIB’s customers.
