Does UPS Sell or Cash Money Orders?
UPS doesn’t sell or cash money orders, nor has it ever offered these services.[1]
I contacted The UPS Store locations in Arizona, Michigan, South Carolina, and South Dakota to confirm this information.
If you need to have official documents notarized in connection with sending a money order, UPS does offer this service for about $10.[1]
Note that some locations may require you to have an appointment for notary services.[1]
Alternatives
There are a variety of places where you can get free money orders.
You can also purchase a money order from the United States Postal Service (USPS) for a fee of about $2 to $3 (depending on the money order amount).[2]
Tip: If you were hoping to save yourself a trip by mailing a package and getting a money order at the same place, or if you need to mail your money order, USPS will be your best option. All local Post Offices offer money order services, and you can handle all of your transactions at the same counter.[3]
You can also cash a USPS money order at any of its locations free of charge.[2]
FAQ
No. UPS doesn’t sell or cash any type of check, including cashier’s checks.[1]

Alternatively, you can pick up or cash a USPS money order at any United States Post Office.[2]
