Inmate Money

Every prison has a Commissary that serves to provide prisoners an account for prisoner funds and for buying things not issued regularly by the Bureau of Prisons.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone can send money to prisoner’s Commissary accounts by sending it by Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can choose to send inmates funds in the postal service and will have to send money to the following address and do so in accordance with the rules written below:

The deposit has to be in 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 processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold, and in this time the inmate will not have access to the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will send back any funds that don’t have appropriate prisoner info but only if the envelope has a return address. Cash and personal checks can’t be accepted so don’t send any cash or checks.
