Each state correctional institution has a Commissary which was created to provide inmates an account for inmate funds and for buying things not issued by the correctional facility.

Family, friends, or other sources may send funds to prisoner’s accounts with the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can to send inmates funds by way of postal mail and have to send money to the address below and follow the rules written below:

The funds have to be a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day holding period, in which the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that don’t have valid inmate info but only if the envelope it was sent it has a valid return address. Personal checks and cash cannot be accepted for deposit so don’t send checks or cash.
