How to Send an Ohio Inmate Money
If you have an inmate in Ohio that you need to send money to, there are a few things you need to know. You can't just go to the bank and transfer money into their account - there are specific procedures that must be followed. Here we go:
- Before sending money to an Ohio inmate, check what type of account they have.
- Some Ohio correctional facilities require money to be sent directly to their accounts (account type "A"). Still, others allow for family members or friends to send funds through an outside company (account type "B").
- If the inmate account requires money to be sent directly to it, you'll need several pieces of information. The name of the facility where your loved one is housed, the offender ID number, and the address where you'd like your funds deposited.
- You'll need to know the financial institution processing services used by the correctional facility in order to send money online or over the phone. In most circumstances, money is sent electronically via Western Union or MoneyGram.
The whole process can be time-consuming and frustrating, but with DoNotPay, there are now other seamless options. Simply visit the online chatbot for help with sending money to an Ohio inmate.

- Before you send anything to an Ohio inmate, be sure to check with the correctional facility. Some facilities have a list of prohibited items that inmates can’t receive, while others have specific item restrictions.
- To deliver mail and packages to an inmate in Ohio, you'll need to know their name, prisoner number, and address of the correctional facility they're being housed at. The allowed contents of packages depend on the specific facility, but usually, only books and cards are allowed.
