Cashing a MoneyGram Money Order    Back to Top

Can I cash a MoneyGram Money Order for my customer?
Yes, however, it is important to note that MoneyGram Money Orders will not be paid if they have been forged, altered, stolen, counterfeited or previously refunded. Recourse for returned money orders is only against the endorser. This means that persons or businesses receiving a MoneyGram Money Order should accept it only from those known to them and against whom they have effective recourse.

If you are uncertain about cashing a MoneyGram Money Order, you may contact us at (800) 542-3590 and we will provide you with the current money order status. We cannot, however, guarantee final payment or amount.
