How to Send Money to Someone at Allegany County Detention Center (MD)
Allegany County Detention Center accepts money two ways: online through jailatm.com, or cash deposits at the Jail ATM kiosk in the facility vestibule. Don't try mailing money - no checks, cash, or money orders are accepted by mail, and mailed funds won't be applied to any inmate account.
Want to deposit from home? Head to jailatm.com. This is the facility's approved online deposit method, and funds go directly into the inmate's account for commissary and other purchases.
Depositing in person? Use the Jail ATM kiosk located in the facility vestibule. It accepts cash and applies funds to the inmate's account right away - convenient if you're already at the facility.
Tip: Use the vestibule kiosk if you’re depositing cash at the facility; use jailatm.com if you want to deposit online from anywhere.
During holiday seasons, families can order gifts for inmates through allegamd.jailcanteen.com. This is a separate option from depositing money - it's specifically for approved holiday gift packages.
Regular commissary purchases come out of the inmate's account balance. If you want to help someone buy items on an ongoing basis, deposit funds through jailatm.com or the on-site kiosk - that's what funds their commissary spending.
