Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for enabling a validated money transfer between a sending and a receiving person via a sending and a receiving financial institution, where a request to a validation agent for validation of a money transfer replaces normal time consuming cross border security checks. The validation agent, being unaffiliated with the sending financial institution and the receiving financial institution, administers a data base comprising validated transfer agreements, which agreements specifies at least the identity of a sending person and of a receiving person. A validation of a transfer is executed at the validation agent by comparing current transfer data with information specified in the validated transfer agreements.
