How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone can send funds to prisoner’s accounts with Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send inmates funds in postal mail and have to send those funds to this address and do so in accordance with the policies written below:

The deposit has to be a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number.

The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that don’t have appropriate inmate information but only if the envelope has a valid return address.
