Moscow, Russia, December 05, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The UNISTREAM International Money Transfer System and the RURU payment service, the leader in the mobile financial market in Russia, have expanded the geography of mobile transfers.

Users can transfer money via SMS dialogue by sending a text message to a short number, via the RURU.ru website, or via the RURU mobile app for Android and iOS phones from a mobile account, or a Visa and MasterCard credit card account.
