Inmate Money

Every state correctional institution has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates a bank account for inmate funds and for buying things not issued to inmates by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone can add funds to inmate’s Commissary accounts using Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners money in postal mail and have to send the money to this address and do so in accordance with the rules given below:

The funds must be a money order 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 that are processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold, and during this hold period the inmate will not have access to the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have correct prisoner info if the envelope has a valid return address. Cash and checks can’t be accepted for deposit so don’t send checks or cash.
