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

Friends, family, or other people may send funds into these accounts with the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send prisoners money in the postal service and will have to send it to this address and do so in accordance with the rules listed below:

The funds must be in a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold, during which the prisoner will not get the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that don’t have correct prisoner information but only if the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Checks and cash will not be accepted so don’t send cash or checks.
