Similar to a cashier's check a money order is a check-like instrument, paid for by collected funds and used to make purchases or pay for services when payment requires a higher level of reliability and security than a personal check or cash. Money Orders have a carbon copy for your records and provide a safe, reliable payment method to any payee.

Money Orders are issued in amounts up to $1,000. There is an additional $1.00 fee per check. Money Orders must be purchased with collected funds or cash only. For a reliable check payment in an amount over $1,000, you might consider a cashier's check.
