Sending Money

Augusta Corrections Center uses third-party vendors for most money-related deposits. JPay handles funds sent directly to inmates, while ConnectNetwork covers pre-pay phone accounts and PIN Debit deposits (toll-free 1-800-483-8314). Do not mail money orders, cash, or personal checks to the facility. Instead, follow the vendor's deposit steps and enter the inmate's exact name and ID as the facility lists them to avoid delays. Fees, deposit methods, and posting times vary by vendor and account type, so make sure you're using the correct portal for what you're funding. If your deposit doesn't post, contact the vendor first. If that doesn't resolve it, reach out to the facility's finance or commissary channel.
