Money Order Question

Last time I sent out a money order, I was told I filled it out wrong. I'm just making sure I fill this one out right.

It's got three fields...

"Pay to the order of"
"Purchaser, Signer for drawer"
"Address"

this is how i fill mine out and ive had no probs.

Its supposed to be like a check, so Pontiac is correct.

On a check you have your name and addy and pay to the order of.

You also have to endorse it.

Thanks Phil. I almost didn't catch that. I'll get this right one of these days.

EDIT

On the back, it says "Payee's Endorsement." Does that mean my signature?

^^ oh gosh..... it doesn't take a friggen rocket scientist.

Do you sign the back of a check when you put it in your account?

I normally do. So if you gave me a money order. I sign the back and put my account info.

Treat it like a check. It will be alot easier.

it say's payee's endorsement.... not purchaser's endorsement.

Hmm you might not actually have to endorse (sign) it. I guess it depends on who issues the money order.

It looks like the postal money orders issued by the united states postal service (usps) do not have a place for the purchaser (you) to sign:

i get mine at the post office and i dont sign. just put who its to and the order number in the for spot

Yea, if you're not sure just ask the person working where ever you're getting the money order. Otherwise go to the Post Office

You all need credit cards

kinda hard to use one if the person you're sending the money order to does accept credit cards or have a paypal account.

I don't like paypal for getting money, they take like 3% off so i don't get all the money.

My bank account, has a Debit card linked to it. Has all the abilities of a Mastercard. If I try to charge too much to my card. It will accept but then my bank charges me a 10 dollar amount for draining my account.

I got a Visa CheckCard with my checking account
