Each prison has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank type account for inmate money and for buying items not issued by the prison.

Family, friends, or other sources can add money into these Commissary accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send inmates money in postal mail and must send those funds to this address and follow the directions provided below:

The money must 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 should use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold, in which the inmate will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return any funds that don’t have appropriate inmate info provided the envelope has an adequate return address. Cash and personal checks cannot be deposited to the inmate’s account so don’t send checks or cash.
