This is a new thread for 2017. The previous discussion can be found here.

Moneygram does not allow mobile app MO deposit regardless of whether or not the bank allows it. However, this policy doesn't seem to be enforced. You can still deposit via ATM or in person.

Banks that allow Money Order deposits via Smartphone

Allow MO deposits via Smartphone:

• BB&T. $1,000 per day, $3,000 per month. WU works fine. Doesn't seem to take MoneyGram.
• Charles Schwab, depending on account up to 10k/day (While they allow MOs, their app may not be able to read all MOs. MG only work with dark printouts.)
• Citadel FCU: normally works great with WU, but only do one deposit, small amount first time to test. Increase deposit amount slowly, and do not exceed 2K daily or they may call you and ask what you are doing, or freeze account. Very fraud-conscious at this CU. MO funds avail. within 24 hrs. Apparent $10K/mo limit.
• Citibank (500 first 6 months, 1500 thereafter) Citibank does not allow MoneyGram mobile deposits and most ATMs reject the MO.(Ref)
• Clearview FCU
• DCU - works, reports of shutdown for MS specific behavior (depositing Money Orders) start in March 2017 (Ref, Ref, Ref posts 99 and onward)
  clears immediately (Ref). Very finicky that the MO be filled out completely and the back is endorsed "for deposit only DCU".
• Everbank ($50K per day total, no check bigger than $50K) (but see report of shutdown
  Ref)
• NorthePointe bank. 10 day hold per new accounts <30 days old.
• Penfed. $5K per day limit. WU works fine. A portion of deposit may be held back for a few days. Doesn't seem to take MG (amount entered doesn't match amount detected error message).
• Simple* (March 2014: People now receiving emails asking source and purpose of MO deposits) (Ref)
  15 photo deposit per month and $3000 per deposit (first 5 are limited to $2000). Robust MO reading (Ref)
• SunTrust Only seems to accept WU, posts next day if in before 9pm.
• United Bank
• UFB Direct
  prefers MoneyGram MOs; WU MOs work fine also. Will Shut down. (Ref)
• USAA (Ref)
  May be limited to $1k/day available immediately (Ref), with remainder held for 1 week. User experience: $5k/day. One person reported shutdown after a few months, doing less than 5K mo in MO deposits.(Ref)
• Wells Fargo
  $2500/day $5000/mo ($1000/day $3000/30days for new accounts < 180 days) (Ref)
  user experience: multiple <=$500 (Ref); WU MO (Ref)
