Inmate Money

Every prison has a Commissary which was created to provide inmates a bank type account for inmate monies and for buying things not provided by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone may deposit money to these Commissary 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 inmates funds in the postal service and have to send money to this address and do so in accordance with the rules written below:

The deposit has to be in a money order that is made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a postal money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day holding period, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the deposit. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender funds that don’t have appropriate prisoner info provided the envelope has an adequate return address. Personal checks and cash won’t be accepted so do not send checks or cash.
