Sending Money

The only way for an inmate to purchase anything at the FCI Sandstone commissary or to make a phone call is to have money in her account.

The easiest way to get money to an inmate is through Moneygram and you can deposit money on the Moneygram website. You can also send money through Western Union’s website.

There is a third option, but it takes a little bit longer to reach the inmate. You can send money via a money order in the mail, but it needs to be processed through the federal prison processing system in Iowa.
