Each prison has a Commissary that serves to provide prisoners a bank type account for prisoner funds and for buying items not provided by the prison.

Friends, family, or other people can deposit funds into these accounts by sending it by Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners money in the mail and have to send funds to the address below and follow the steps written below:

The money must be in the form of a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is advisable to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day hold period, and during this period the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will send back funds that don’t have correct inmate information but only if the envelope has an adequate return address. Cash and personal checks won’t be deposited so do not send any cash or checks.
