Inmate Money

Every state correctional institution has a Commissary which serves to provide prisoners an account for prisoner money and for buying things not provided by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone may send money into these Commissary accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners funds through postal mail and must send money to this address and follow the rules shows below:

The money has to be in a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day holding period, in which the inmate will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will send back funds that don’t have appropriate prisoner info if the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Personal checks and cash won’t be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send any cash or checks.
