Each state correctional institution has a Commissary that was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for prisoner funds and for buying items not issued to inmates by the Bureau of Prisons.

Family, friends, or other sources can add funds to these Commissary accounts using Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can to send inmates money in the postal service and must send those funds to the address below and do so in accordance with the directions written below:

The money must be a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold, and in this time the prisoner will not have access to the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will send back funds that do not have appropriate inmate information but only if the envelope you sent it in has an adequate return address. Cash and checks cannot be accepted for deposit so do not send checks or cash.
