In most states the check-cashing limit is $5,000, though we increase this limit to $7,500 between January & April of each year.

Check-cashing fees have a $4 maximum for pre-printed checks up to $1,000. For pre-printed checks above $1,000, the maximum fee is $8. Two-party personal checks are limited to $200 & have a maximum fee of $6.

Simply present your endorsed check to the cashier at our Money Service Center or Customer Service desk along with valid identification & pay the required fee. There’s no need to register to cash checks with us or to have a Walmart store credit card or Walmart MasterCard.
