How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Aransas County Jail processes commissary orders twice weekly. Orders must be in by Monday at 7:00 AM for Tuesday delivery and by Thursday at 7:00 AM for Friday delivery. If an inmate's account has a negative balance, the commissary system automatically deducts 25% of incoming funds toward that amount. The jail also provides indigent underwear (socks, shirt, and briefs) every six weeks, charging $5.75 to the inmate's commissary account. For deposits, follow the jail's centralized instructions and use approved online vendors, kiosks, or accepted mail methods. Don't send cash or use the inmate's facility mailing address for deposits. The Inmate Trust Fund office can confirm receipt of deposits but typically won't provide account balances to third parties.
