To save money, test a few different payment methods and amounts for your transfer, as sending two smaller transfers may be cheaper than one large transfer.<\/p><div class=\"u-grid\"><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/2@s\"><h4>MoneyGram fees<\/h4><p>MoneyGram bases fees on the amount you are sending. Fees typically increase at around \u00a3500 and \u00a31,000, sometimes doubling when you bump up to the next fee tier.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Cheap:<\/strong> Paying by bank and having the money delivered to a bank account is often the cheapest way to send money through MoneyGram.<\/li><li><strong>Expensive:<\/strong> Paying by credit card and having the money available for cash pickup is often the most expensive way to transfer through MoneyGram.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/2@s\"><h4>MoneyGram exchange rate<\/h4><p>MoneyGram makes money by adding a margin to the exchange rate in addition to any fees charged. These exchange rates may change depending on how you are paying and how the money is being received, so <b>pay attention to the total amount expected to be transferred<\/b> when deciding on how to send your money through MoneyGram. Finding the balance between low fees and strong exchange rates is key to saving the most money on your transfer.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"content tableWithFilters\n        \n        \n

MoneyGram UK\u2019s ratings were 84% Excellent and Great, with 12% of reviews being Poor and Bad. Many customers complained about customer service, while many other customers were happy when completing transactions entirely online.<\/p><h4>Is MoneyGram safe to use?<\/h4><p>After multiple legal cases, one in 2012 and another in 2016, MoneyGram has increased its fraud prevention protocols to keep customers safer. It does this by monitoring transactions, educating customers on the dangers of money transfer fraud and providing numerous resources to customers to report potential fraud.<\/p><p>Common consumer scams, according to MoneyGram, include:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Tax extortion scam.<\/strong> A person claiming to be from a government agency asks for money to cover back debts owed to HMRC. To do so, the person claims you must wire money or send a prepaid card to a \u201cgovernment account\u201d.<\/li><li><strong>Refund scams.<\/strong> A person claims to be working for the Financial Conduct Authority and promises to help you get a refund, sent directly to your bank account.<\/li><li><strong>Disaster relief.<\/strong> After a major disaster, scammers set up fake charities and ask for donations through wire transfers.<\/li><li><strong>Foreign lottery.<\/strong> A person contacts you claiming you won a foreign lottery or sweepstakes, but due to international tax laws requires you to pay a fee upfront to claim your price.<\/li><li><strong>Buying a vehicle.<\/strong> An online or newspaper ad for a vehicle seems too good to be true, and to secure the vehicle you must send a down payment before meeting with the person. Typically they ask you to wire money, which after being sent cannot be retrieved.<\/li><\/ul><p>Any fraud can be reported through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.moneygram.com\/mgo\/gb\/en\/help\/contact\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">MoneyGram\u2019s website<\/a> or to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fca.org.uk\/consumers\/report-scam-us\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Financial Conduct Authority<\/a>.<\/p><p><a class=\"more-link-arrow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/uk\/international-money-transfers\/how-safe-is-moneygram-for-international-money-transfers\">How does MoneyGram protect your money?<\/a><\/p><h3>What are all the ways I can send money with MoneyGram?<\/h3><p>MoneyGram offers one of the widest ranges of ways to send money and ways for your receiver to get it.

receiver to get the money<\/h4><ul><li><strong>Send to a bank account.<\/strong> Although slower, this lets your receiver get the money directly in their account.<\/li><li><strong>Organise for it to be picked up in cash at a MoneyGram location.<\/strong> The money is ready at the location in as little as 10 minutes after you\u2019ve sent it, depending on the opening hours of the pickup location you\u2019ve selected.<\/li><li><strong>Send directly to someone\u2019s debit card.<\/strong> Save your recipient the trouble of picking up or transferring money by sending it directly to their debit card. Do this by selecting <strong>Debit Card Deposit<\/strong> when choosing your receive method. This only works for Visa debit cards within the UK.<\/li><li><strong>Send to a mobile wallet.<\/strong> A mobile wallet is a place to store funds digitally, with actual wallet types varying by country and user preference.<\/li><li><strong>Delivered right to their door.<\/strong> In some locations, you can choose home delivery as a receiving method. Your money will be delivered by a local MoneyGram agent.<\/li><li><strong>Pay bills through MoneyGram.<\/strong> MoneyGram supports bill payment to utility companies, credit cards and more. Use the online bill pay search to find out if the company you want to pay is supported by the MoneyGram network.<\/li><\/ul><h3 id=\"online\">What do I need to send money online through MoneyGram?<\/h3><p>Sending money with MoneyGram will require a few documents and pieces of information, including:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Contact information.<\/strong> Your full name and contact information is needed. Additionally, if you\u2019re transferring money from your bank account, you\u2019ll also need your banking information.<\/li><li><strong>Proof of ID.<\/strong> A government-issued ID, such as a driver\u2019s licence or passport.<\/li><li><strong>Recipient information.<\/strong> Be prepared with your recipient\u2019s name and contact information. If you\u2019re transferring to a bank account, you\u2019ll also need their bank name, SWIFT code and account number.<\/li><li><strong>Payment method.<\/strong> A valid method of payment is necessary for all transfers. Online transfers can be paid for through a bank account, credit card or debit card. In person transfers you can also pay with cash.<\/li><\/ul><h3>How to track a MoneyGram transfer<\/h3><p>Find your <strong>authorisation<\/strong> or <strong>reference number<\/strong> on your receipt or in your email, if you placed an order online. To track, you can:<\/p><ul><li>Use the online<strong> Track a Transfer<\/strong> tool by entering your last name with the authorisation or reference number.<\/li><li>Contact customer service and provide the authorisation or reference number to them, along with your last name, to check the status of your order.<\/li><li>Visit a MoneyGram location and provide your information to the agent to find out where your order is and if it has been picked up or not.<\/li><\/ul><h3>Does MoneyGram have a mobile app?<\/h3><div class=\"u-grid\"><div class=\"u-grid__col u-1\/4@s\"><p><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Image: Supplied\" src=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/2020\/04\/MoneyGramAppScreenshot_Supplied_400x202.png\" alt=\"Screenshot of MoneyGram's app\" width=\"202\" height=\"400\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1367903\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/2020\/04\/MoneyGramAppScreenshot_Supplied_400x202.png?fit=180 180w, https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/2020\/04\/MoneyGramAppScreenshot_Supplied_400x202.png?fit=360 360w, https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/2020\/04\/MoneyGramAppScreenshot_Supplied_400x202.png?fit=600 600w, https:\/\/www.finder.com\/finder-us\/wp-uploads\/2020\/04\/MoneyGramAppScreenshot_Supplied_400x202.png?fit=606 606w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p><\/div><div class=\"u-grid__col u-3\/4@s\"><p>Yes, MoneyGram has an app on both Google Play and the App Store.
