Each state prison has a Commissary that was started to provide inmates an account for prisoner money and for purchasing things not provided by the Bureau of Prisons.

Family, friends, or other sources may send money to inmate’s Commissary accounts with Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send inmates money by way of the postal service and must send the money to the address below and do so in accordance with the directions provided below:

The money has to be in the form of a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day holding period, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will send back any funds that don’t have correct inmate info if the envelope it was sent it has a valid return address. Cash and checks cannot be deposited to the inmate’s account so don’t send any checks or cash.
