Read full guideSending Commissary
ASPC-Cheyenne follows ADCRR statewide policy for inmate money deposits. Arizona state complexes don't accept checks, money orders, or cashier's checks for inmate accounts, so don't mail those payment types. Instead, add funds through approved options: a third-party vendor website or app, the vendor phone line, or an on-site kiosk. When depositing online or by phone, you'll need the inmate's identifier (commissary/PIN or booking number) and your payment details so the money posts to the correct account. Deposited funds can go toward commissary, telephone, or other authorized uses. Official government checks (Veterans, Social Security, Disability) have a separate mailing procedure to Inmate Trust Accounts starting January 7, 2026.
