Every prison has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate monies and for buying items not issued regularly by the facility.

Friends, family, or other people can add funds to these accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send inmates funds in postal mail and have to send the money to this address and follow the rules listed below:

The deposit must be a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return money orders that don’t have correct prisoner information provided the envelope you sent it in has an adequate return address. Cash and checks will not be deposited so don’t send checks or cash.
