Your Walmart Money Center is a convenient way to cash checks, get money orders, use bill pay services, and more. Here are some common FAQ’s about how a Walmart Money Center works.

What time does Walmart to Walmart money center close?

Most Walmart Money Center hours are similar to the Walmart store’s general hours with the Money Center typically closing a few hours earlier. For most stores that means the money services will be available from 6 am to 8 pm, Monday through Saturday and 6 am to 6 pm on Sunday.

Not all Walmart stores are open for the same hours so always check the exact hours for your own local store first. You can typically find this information on the Walmart app as well as on the Walmart website using the store finder.

  • Walmart to Walmart (Powered by Ria)
  • Western Union.
  • MoneyGram.

You can also use the Walmart app or website to complete your transactions. If you prefer, you can start the transfer online and then go to the store to complete it within 24 hours. You will need a government-issued photo id plus the information from the transfer. You can pay with cash or a debit card in stores.

Money can be sent to nearly anywhere in the US and Puerto Rico plus 200 other countries.

How do I pick up money from Walmart to Walmart?

During normal Walmart MoneyCenter hours, you can pick up money that has been sent to you with a valid, photo ID plus the reference number or MTCN number from the sender. The name on your ID must match the name that was used to send money to you. Your ID must also be current and must be government-issued.

Can you cash a check at a Walmart Money Center?

Yes! It is easy to cash a check at your local Walmart store during the Money Services hours of operation. You will need an ID and there will be a fee plus limits on your transactions. Check the list above for the types of checks that can be cashed at Walmart stores.

Did you know that when you cash a check in-store, you can choose how you want to receive the cash back? You can choose cash, obviously but you can also choose to have the money deposited to your Bluebird account or onto a Walmart MoneyCard.

A Walmart MoneyCard is a reloadable debit card that is issued by Green Dot Bank. It can be used like any other debit card and is accepted anywhere that Visa and Mastercard debit cards can be used.

How do I receive money from Walmart Money Center?

To receive money that someone else has sent you, go to the Walmart Money Center with the transaction information, including the reference number plus your photo ID. Make sure that your sender gets your name right because it will have to match what is on your ID.

How long can I wait to pick up money from Walmart?

If someone sends you money but you cannot get to any of the Walmart stores right away, do not worry. You will have 21 days to complete any money transfers. If you cannot pick the money up within that time period it will be returned to the person that sent it to you and can be resent at their discretion when you are ready to receive it.

To avoid this problem and the additional fees, you can also send and receive money online. Money transfers can be completed directly from the Walmart app.

What services does Walmart Money Center offer?

In addition to check cashing and money transfer, there are dozens of services that you can use at the Walmart store’s Money Center or Customer service desk. Here are some of the services that are available:

  • Send money internationally.
