How to Send Money to Someone at USP Terre Haute Using MoneyGram

MoneyGram's ExpressPayment program lets you deposit funds electronically to any Federal Bureau of Prisons commissary account, including accounts at USP Terre Haute. The most critical detail is the Account Number: it must be the inmate's eight-digit register number followed immediately by their last name, with no spaces or dashes. For example: 12345678DOE. Get even one character wrong, and the transaction could be rejected - or worse, applied to someone else's account.

For the Account Number field, enter the inmate’s eight-digit register number and then type the inmate’s last name right after it - no spaces, no hyphens, no dashes. A simple example looks like 12345678DOE.

On the MoneyGram form, set the Company Name to Federal Bureau of Prisons.

For City & State, enter Washington, DC.

Use Receive Code 7932 for commissary deposits.

For the Beneficiary, list the inmate’s full committed name (their full legal name as it appears on BOP records).

When everything is entered correctly, transfers post quickly. Send between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. EST, and funds typically hit the account within 2–4 hours. After 9:00 p.m. EST? The deposit posts the next morning at 7:00 a.m. EST.

Common Mistakes

  • Company Name is set to Federal Bureau of Prisons
  • City & State is Washington, DC
  • Receive Code is 7932

Warning: Incorrect inmate information - especially the register number/last-name Account Number format - can cause the transaction to be rejected or applied to the wrong account.
