What is the maximum amount for a domestic money order?

  1. $500

  2. $1000

  3. $1500

  4. $2000

The correct answer is: $1000

The maximum amount for a domestic money order is indeed $1,000. This limit is established to help ensure a balance between accessibility and security for consumers using money orders as a payment method. Domestic money orders are a secure way to send money through the United States Postal Service, and the $1,000 cap allows individuals to send significant sums without crossing into high-value transaction tiers, which often involve more stringent regulations or higher fees. Knowing this limit is crucial for anyone who intends to use money orders for personal or business transactions within the U.S.
