Inmate Money

Each state prison has a Commissary that was started to provide a bank-like account for prisoner money and for buying items not issued by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Family, friends, or other sources may deposit funds to prisoner’s Commissary accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends can choose to send prisoners funds by way of postal mail and will have to send those funds to the following address and do so in accordance with the directions shows below:

The deposit has to be in the form of a money order that is made out to the prisoner’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You are advised to use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders that are processed through the National Lockbox will be placed on a 15-day hold, in which the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will send back money orders that don’t have correct prisoner info but only if the envelope you sent it in has a return address. Cash and personal checks won’t be accepted for deposit so don’t send any cash or checks.
