Inmate Money

Each state correctional institution has a Commissary which was started to provide inmates an account for inmate monies and for buying items not issued to inmates by the facility.

How to Send an Inmate Money

Anyone can deposit money to these Commissary accounts by sending it by Western Union and the U.S. Postal Service.

Via U.S. Postal Service: Inmates’ families and friends are able to send prisoners funds through postal mail and have to send it to the address below and follow the policies given below:

The money has to be in 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 that are processed through the National Lockbox will be kept for a 15-day holding period, and during this hold period the inmate will not get the money. The Bureau of Prisons will return money orders that don’t have valid prisoner information provided the envelope has a valid return address. Cash and personal checks can’t be deposited to the prisoner’s account so don’t send cash or checks.

Inmate Locator

Prisoners are from time to time changed to various prisons throughout Ohio, so sometimes you may have to look up the current location of an inmate using the inmate locator. Follow the link here to find an state prison inmate.
