Inmate Money

Every state correctional institution has a Commissary which was started to provide prisoners a bank type account for inmate funds and for buying things not issued by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone may send funds to prisoner’s Commissary accounts with Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send inmates money in the mail and have to send funds to the address below and follow the steps written below:

The funds have to be a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold period, and during this hold period the prisoner will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that don’t have correct prisoner information if the envelope it was sent it has a valid return address. Checks and cash won’t be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send any checks or cash.
