Each prison has a Commissary which was created to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate monies and for buying things not issued to inmates by the prison.

Anyone may add 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 can choose to send inmates money in postal mail and have to send it to the address below and do so in accordance with the directions written below:

The deposit has to be in the form of a money order made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day hold period, and in this time the prisoner will not have access to the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that do not have valid prisoner info but only if the envelope you sent it in has a return address. Cash and personal checks cannot be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send checks or cash.
