Inmate Money

Every state correctional institution has a Commissary that was started to provide prisoners a bank-like account for inmate monies and for buying things not issued by the Bureau of Prisons.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Family, friends, or other sources can send money to inmate’s Commissary accounts by sending it by Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can choose to send prisoners money in postal mail and will have to send it to the following address and follow the rules provided below:

The money must be a money order that is 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 held for a 15-day hold period, and during this hold period the inmate will not have access to the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will send back money orders that don’t have appropriate inmate information if the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Checks and cash cannot be accepted so do not send cash or checks.
