How to Send Money to Albany County Jail (NY)
Sending money to someone at Albany County Jail is straightforward once you know which service the jail uses. The catch: the Albany County Corrections webpage doesn't clearly list a specific vendor or instructions, so you'll want to confirm the current process before you pay.
The Albany County Corrections webpage doesn't show a specific vendor or step-by-step instructions for sending money. Treat any money-sending option as "possible," not "confirmed," until you verify it directly with Albany County Corrections.
Access Corrections is a common service used by many jails to receive inmate funds. However, the Albany County Corrections webpage doesn't confirm whether they use this vendor. Only use Access Corrections if the facility's current instructions tell you to.
Steps to Follow
- ✓ Check Albany County Corrections’ current official instructions for inmate funds to see which vendor (if any) they list.
- ✓ If Albany County Corrections confirms Access Corrections is the correct service, follow Access Corrections’ process to send money to your loved one.
- ✓ If you cannot find a confirmed vendor or the instructions look outdated, contact Albany County Corrections to ask which service to use and what information you need before you submit a payment.
Since the Albany County Corrections page doesn't spell out a vendor or process, take a moment to verify you're using the facility's current instructions. This helps you avoid rejected deposits, delays, or sending funds through a service the jail doesn't accept.
Note: Access Corrections offers a way to send money to incarcerated individuals, but the Albany County Corrections webpage doesn't confirm it's their vendor. Before you pay, confirm the approved vendor, accepted payment methods, fees, and the exact ID details required to credit the right person.
