What Are Bank Drafts and Money Orders & When to Use Them? | Complete Guide by Amin Pardaz International
If you're looking for a secure, official, and trackable method for paying university tuition, visa fees, or other international payments, bank drafts and money orders are two trusted options widely accepted by embassies and universities.
🔹 What is a Bank Draft?
A bank draft is a guaranteed international cheque issued by a bank. It confirms that a specified amount has been reserved from the payer’s account and is payable to the recipient (e.g., a university or embassy). Due to its security and official status, it is commonly used for tuition fees, dorm deposits, and immigration-related costs.
Benefits:
-
Accepted by most Canadian and American universities and embassies
-
Includes official bank stamp and expiration date
-
Easily trackable via reference number
-
Useful for immigration, academic, and work-related purposes
🔹 What is a Money Order?
A money order is another official payment method, usually for smaller amounts, issued by a bank or trusted financial institutions (like Western Union or post offices). While similar to a bank draft, it is preferred when the recipient doesn’t have a bank account or for more basic payments.
🔹 Comparison Table:
Feature | Bank Draft | Money Order |
---|---|---|
Payment Amount | Large amounts | Typically under $1,000 |
Issuer | Bank | Bank, Post Office, Financial Institutions |
