Each state prison has a Commissary which was started to provide a bank-like account for prisoner money and for purchasing things not issued regularly by the Bureau of Prisons.

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

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can to send prisoners funds by way of postal mail and must send those funds to the following address and follow the directions given below:

The funds must be in the form of 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 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 in this time the inmate will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return any funds that don’t have valid inmate info but only if the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Checks and cash can’t be deposited to the inmate’s account so don’t send cash or checks.
