Every state prison has a Commissary which was created to provide prisoners a bank account for prisoner funds and for buying items not provided by the prison.

Family, friends, or other sources can send funds into these accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can choose to send inmates money in the mail and must send funds to the following address and do so in accordance with the directions listed below:

The deposit 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. You should use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold period, during which the prisoner will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return any funds that don’t have valid prisoner info but only if the envelope has an adequate return address. Personal checks and cash can’t be accepted for deposit so don’t send any cash or checks.
