well when i order with my debit card i used it just like a card card. type in your numbers on the front of the card ,then they are gonna ask u for the last 3 numbers on the back of the card .and that's it the only difference is the money gets taken out of your checking account when using a debit card . i think western union is
Whether you go online or if you go to the store, MoneyGram is cheaper. If you go to a MoneyGram dealer, it costs $10 and online it is $13.99. WU is $20 either way (Ive never tried WU online).
You need cash if you are going to send money in person at a MG or WU dealer, but you can use credit/debit card online. I hope that helps (and makes sense)!

Moneygram is way cheaper than western Union, sometimes when I send money Africa there's a difference of $20 between the two. you can do the simulation of the cost on both of their sites so that u can compare.
i think you should go for moneygram online,its cheaper,faster than WU, when i send money using WU the more money you send the more you pay,the last time i used it i sent 530$ and paid $60 using WU, i know when you go the the WU Agent you only pay $14 but i couldnt wait, i also sent the same night money using moneygram and paid $13.99 for the same amount.
the only con i found with moneygram is you can only send $500 per transaction per card,
