11 Gas Stations That Do Money Orders (Fees, Limits, etc Shown)

Some gas stations sell money orders, but gas stations typically do not cash money orders.

Below, we list the gas stations where you can get a money order. We contacted locations across the U.S. to confirm money order availability and policy details.

What We Recommend

You can purchase money orders up to $500 for $1 each at Circle K, Kwik Trip, Minit Mart, and Turkey Hill.

These gas stations offer the lowest flat fee you’ll find, but keep in mind that stores that charge a percentage of the money order amount (like 7-Eleven and Stripes) may have the lowest fees if the money order amount you need is relatively low.

QuikTrip is the best option if you need an amount greater than $500, as it will sell money orders for up to $950.

If you need a larger amount than $500 but aren’t local to a QuikTrip, purchasing multiple money orders to equal the amount you need may be an option if you don’t mind paying multiple money order fees.
