postal order
The Spanish term 'giro postal' translates to 'postal order' in English. A postal order, often used as a method of sending money through the mail, is a financial instrument purchased at a post office. It is considered a safer alternative than sending cash as it can be tracked and only cashed by the person to whom it is issued.
