### 3/5 — MG rates are too high

*2026-09-01, version 26.6.30*

I have been using MomeyGram since 2010. The service is good if you want the receiver to get the money as cash. However, if the receiver has the option to receive the money digitally (such as WAVE in the destination country ie look for the pingouin logo) don’t use MoneyGram. Instead, use SENDWAVE (look for the Yellow and black logo). SENDWAVE and WAVE are Linked for an instant money transfer for a flat fee of 0.99cents. You also have the option to send money directly to the receiver bank account if you have their ABA and account number. MoneyGram fees are too high. I stopped using MoneyGram in 2026. To be fair, MoneyGram is safe and easy to use. My only caveat is that its fees are too high.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bad sevice

*2026-09-01, version 26.6.30*

They are very quick to collect the fee when you send money, but they don't respond when you need a receipt.

### 1/5 — One and Done

*2026-08-29, version 26.6.30*

I tried MoneyGram for the first time yesterday. A simple transfer to a person’s checking account that was stated  to happen “within minutes” is taking days. I tried to cancel within 30 minutes and was unable to do so. There are a plethora of ways to send money that are instantaneous. This is not one of them.

### 1/5 — Rising Cost

*2026-08-26, version 26.6.30*

Cost is now double for sending money; unreasonable because there are no risks for the transaction ….greedy,.

### 1/5 — MoneyGram

*2026-08-24, version 26.6.30*

I got a new customer rate to send it to my friend in the Philippines online. I provided all of my information including my drivers license and they canceled my account claiming to protect me from being scammed. Then they said I can go in the store and pay for the transfer fee and they aren’t able to provide a voucher to remove the transfer fee. I asked the customer service lady what’s the difference from going to the store and providing all of the exact same information online. She couldn’t give me an answer. I would give it a 0 out of 5 if I can. Use Wise app than this trash service.

### 1/5 — I sent money on the 26 of July, the receiver has not received it yet, I spoke to a MoneyGram no

*2026-08-20, version 26.6.30*

No one has responded to me yet

### 1/5 — Fee

*2026-08-19, version 26.6.30*

Too much than Walmart 13.99$

### 1/5 — Limited use.

*2026-08-18, version 26.6.30*

They restrict usage with a daily amount. This is so inconvenient.

### 1/5 — Wrong security system

*2026-08-17, version 26.6.30*

They did ID scanning than they block my account. I commented to many times and they couldn’t open back my account. Stops.

### 1/5 — Complain

*2026-08-16, version 26.6.30*

By the time I sent my money out, 975$, they closed my profile for no reason and did not refunded my money. When I contacted with them they even said they didn’t receive my transaction, ridiculous

### 1/5 — Worst App

*2026-08-13, version 26.6.30*

I needed to send money to my father, in large quantities. I know who the person was and i obviously wasn’t getting scammed. But they closed my account for no reason whatsoever only because they weren’t “comfortable” with the money i was sending. It’s my own money??? I’ll send however much i want thank you.
