Money Orders

You may be able to use a money order to pay a bill and you may be able to cash your money order at banks and other retailers (grocery stores, check-cashing locations or other stores where you’ve been able to cash checks in the past). In some circumstances, the bank or retailer may charge you to cash your money order. You may also be able to deposit the money order into your bank account.

Buy a money order at a participating Western Union agent location. Please note, not all Western Union locations, including where you buy a money order, are able to cash them.
