Each prison has a Commissary which serves to provide an account for inmate funds and for purchasing things not provided by the facility.

Anyone may deposit money to prisoner’s accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send prisoners funds in the mail and will have to send funds to the following address and do so in accordance with the steps provided below:

The deposit has to be a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day hold, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender funds that do not have correct inmate information if the envelope has an adequate return address. Personal checks and cash can’t be deposited so don’t send cash or checks.
