ArmInfo. Ardshininvestbank has launched money transfers via the international systems Coinstar and BLIZKO. The press service of Ardshininvestbank told ArmInfo that introduction of the given systems will provide an opportunity to the bank's clients to carry out fast transfers in USD, EUR and RUR to the United States, Europe and the CIS countries.
