Inmate Money

Each state correctional institution has a Commissary that was started to provide prisoners a bank-like account for prisoner money and for purchasing things not provided by the prison.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Friends, family, or other people can add funds to inmate’s accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send inmates funds in postal mail and must send funds to the address below and follow the directions written below:

The money must be a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day holding period, and during this period the prisoner will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender funds that don’t have correct inmate info but only if the envelope it was sent it has a valid return address. Cash and checks will not be deposited so do not send cash or checks.
