Every prison has a Commissary that serves to provide inmates a bank account for inmate monies and for purchasing things not provided by the facility.

Anyone can add funds to inmate’s accounts by sending it by 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 through postal mail and must send the money to this address and follow the policies shows below:

The deposit 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 advisable to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day holding period, during which the inmate will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have valid inmate information provided the envelope it was sent it has a valid return address. Personal checks and cash can’t be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send checks or cash.
