Every state prison has a Commissary that was started to provide a bank-like account for prisoner money and for buying things not provided by the correctional facility.

Friends, family, or other people may send money to inmate’s accounts using the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners money in the mail and have to send the money to the following address and do so in accordance with the policies written below:

The money has to be a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day holding period, in which the prisoner will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender any funds that do not have appropriate prisoner info but only if the envelope you sent it in has an adequate return address. Cash and checks will not be accepted so do not send checks or cash.
