Each prison has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank-like account for inmate monies and for buying things not issued regularly by the correctional facility.

Anyone can deposit funds to prisoner’s accounts by sending it by Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send inmates funds in postal mail and must send the money to the following address and follow the steps shows below:

The money has to be in the form of a money order that is made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day holding period, and in this time the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will send back any funds that don’t have valid prisoner info if the envelope it was sent it has a return address. Personal checks and cash cannot be accepted for deposit so don’t send any cash or checks.
