Money orders and money transfer services are available in Augusta. A money order is a system where the sender fills out a money order form and pays at the local postal office. The form is taken to the recipient, who is then paid by the post office nearest to his house. This entire transaction has a charge, which is borne by the sender. Postal money orders are difficult to counterfeit, and thus, this is a safe way to transfer money. Money can also be transferred online or via wire services. Credit cards, paid-by-cash and mobile payment services are the newest innovations in the field of transferring money from one person or organization to another. Money orders in Augusta may also be sold at grocery stores and convenience stores.
