Inmate Money

Each state correctional institution has a Commissary which serves to provide inmates a bank type account for prisoner funds and for buying items not issued by the correctional facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Friends, family, or other people may add money into these accounts with Western Union or by mail.

Via U.S. Postal Service: An inmate’s family and friends are able to send prisoners money in the postal service and must send those funds to the following address and do so in accordance with the policies provided below:

The funds must be in the form of a money order that is made out to the inmate’s full committed name and complete eight-digit register number. You should use a U.S. Postal Service money order, since all non-postal money orders processed through the National Lockbox will be subject to a 15-day hold period, during which the inmate will not get the funds. The Bureau of Prisons will return to the sender money orders that don’t have appropriate prisoner information provided the envelope you sent it in has a valid return address. Checks and cash won’t be deposited to the inmate’s account so do not send cash or checks.
