Inmate Money
Every prison has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate money and for buying things not issued by the Bureau of Prisons.
How to Send an Inmate Money
Friends, family, or other people can add money to these Commissary accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.
Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send prisoners money in the mail and have to send money to this address and follow the steps shows below:
Federal Bureau of Prisons
Insert Valid Committed Inmate Name

Post Office Box 474701
Des Moines, Iowa 50947-0001
The deposit has to be in the form of 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 postal money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold, during which the prisoner will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender any funds that don’t have valid prisoner info if the envelope has an adequate return address. Cash and personal checks can’t be deposited to the inmate’s account so do not send checks or cash.
