Inmate Money

Every state prison has a Commissary that was created to provide prisoners a bank type account for inmate monies and for purchasing things not provided by the prison.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Friends, family, or other people can deposit funds to prisoner’s accounts using the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send prisoners funds in the postal service and must send funds to the address below and follow the rules provided below:

The deposit has to be in a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold, and in this time the prisoner will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will send back money orders that don’t have valid prisoner info provided the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Cash and checks can’t be accepted so don’t send cash or checks.
