Each prison has a Commissary which was created to provide prisoners a bank type account for prisoner funds and for buying things not issued by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Friends, family, or other people may deposit money to these accounts by sending it by the U.S. Postal Service and Western Union.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends can to send prisoners funds in the postal service and have to send funds to the address below and do so in accordance with the rules written below:

The deposit has to be a money order made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. It is best if you 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, during which the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have appropriate prisoner information but only if the envelope you sent it in has an adequate return address. Personal checks and cash can’t be accepted for deposit so don’t send checks or cash.
