Each prison has a Commissary which serves to provide inmates a bank type account for inmate money and for purchasing things not issued to inmates by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone may deposit money into these accounts using Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can choose to send prisoners money in postal mail and have to send it to the address below and follow the policies shows below:

The deposit must 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. It is best if you use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day hold, in which the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return funds that do not have valid prisoner info if the envelope has a valid return address. Personal checks and cash cannot be deposited so do not send cash or checks.
