Send Inmate Money

How do I send money to a federal prisoner or inmate for immediate credit to their corrlinks

Hi there, I am trying to send my Fiance money for his books, yet I'm not sure if I am supposed to select SECURUS from the options menu as to where I am sending my money, because of the fact that he is a Federal Inmate. I did select this option though, to see if it allowed me to, and it did, because when I tried to select FBP, it could not find him in the system. So, do I just continue with my SECURUS selection? Thank you in advance for any help.

To send money to a federal inmate, you have to use MoneyGram.  You will need your inmate's name and 8 digit inmate ID number.

To send money to a federal inmate, you have to use MoneyGram.  You will need your inmate's name and 8 digit inmate ID number. When you get to the drop down selections, look for Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP).
