Each prison has a Commissary that was created to provide prisoners a bank account for prisoner money and for buying items not issued regularly by the facility.

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

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can choose to send inmates funds in the mail and have to send the money to the address below and follow the directions given below:

The deposit has to be in a money order made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a post office money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be held for a 15-day holding period, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will send back funds that don’t have appropriate prisoner information provided the envelope it was sent it has an adequate return address. Cash and personal checks will not be accepted for deposit so do not send any cash or checks.
