          VIAD CORP SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETES TENDER OFFER FOR MONEYGRAM

                                  ------------

                 MONEYGRAM TO BECOME PART OF TRAVELERS EXPRESS

PHOENIX, Ariz., May 26, 1998 -- Viad Corp (NYSE:VVI) announced today the cash
acquisition of MoneyGram Payment Systems, Inc. (NYSE:MNE) at a price of $17.35
per share. MoneyGram, one of the nation's leading money wire transfer
companies, will become a part of Viad's wholly owned subsidiary, Travelers
Express Company of Minneapolis, the nation's largest money order company.

     "MoneyGram is a great, great strategic fit with Travelers Express," said
Robert H. Bohannon, Viad's chairman, president and chief executive officer.
"There are numerous synergies between the two companies that will accelerate
expansion of our payment services business. MoneyGram gives us instant access
to the billion dollar global wire transfer market, as well as providing
cross-marketing opportunities for both money order and money wire transfer
products. This acquisition also furthers our major drive to expand Viad's core
businesses and extend our leadership in each business sector in which we
operate."

     The tender offer, which commenced on April 10, 1998, was completed on
Friday, May 22. Viad was tendered a sufficient number of shares to complete the
transaction. According to the Depository for the offer, 11,155,362 shares of
common stock of MoneyGram were tendered, including 1,489,874 shares tendered
by notice of guaranteed delivery, representing approximately 67.6 percent of
the shares outstanding as of the close of business on May 22, 1998. A total of
5,358,438 shares were not tendered.

     Headquartered in Lakewood, Colo., MoneyGram was formed in 1988 and today
operates in more than 100 countries, with its strongest presence in the wire
transfer of money from the U.S. to Mexico. The wire transfer market has been
growing 20 to 30 percent per year for the last ten years.

     Philip W. Milne, president and chief executive officer of Travelers
Express said, "Combining our 50,000 retail locations with MoneyGram's 22,000
locations provides a tremendous opportunity for marketing our products. This is
a big step in our long-term strategy to provide a comprehensive package of
financial services for consumers and financial institutions."

     James F. Calvano, MoneyGram's chairman and chief executive officer, said,
"We are excited about the combination of these complementary businesses and the
positive distribution and technology expertise Travelers Express will bring to
our business. In like manner, our global presence and strong brand awareness
will assist Travelers Express to grow in new markets. It's a great opportunity
for us both."

     Viad Corp is a $2.5 billion S&P MidCap 400 services company with interests
in payment services, airline catering, convention services, and travel and
leisure. Headquarters are in Phoenix, Ariz.
