Every prison has a Commissary that was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate monies and for purchasing things not issued to inmates by the prison.

Friends, family, or other people may send funds to prisoner’s Commissary accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send inmates funds by way of the mail and will have to send money to this address and do so in accordance with the steps provided below:

The money 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. It is best if you use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day hold, in which the prisoner will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender funds that do not have correct prisoner information provided the envelope you sent it in has a return address. Personal checks and cash will not be deposited to the inmate’s account so don’t send any checks or cash.
