Every prison has a Commissary that serves to provide prisoners a bank type account for prisoner money and for buying things not issued by the facility.

Family, friends, or other sources can deposit money to prisoner’s Commissary accounts using Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send inmates funds by way of the postal service and will have to send those funds to the address below and follow the policies shows below:

The deposit must be in a money order that is made out to the prisoner’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 processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day holding period, and during this period the inmate will not have access to the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that do not have appropriate prisoner info provided the envelope you sent it in has a valid return address. Cash and personal checks can’t be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send checks or cash.
