How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
To fund commissary at Berrien County Jail, deposit money at kiosks in the jail lobby or the Niles Courthouse, online through ConnectNetwork, or by phone using the vendor's payment line. Friends and family can also place commissary orders through ExpressAccount by phone or website, but there's a limit: one order per inmate each week with a $25 merchandise cap (plus any convenience fee). For that week's delivery, place orders by Monday at midnight, deposit money by 11:00 a.m. Tuesday, and complete phone orders by 11:00 a.m. Tuesday. Hygiene kits are available at booking, and inmates can rent a TV for $10 per week charged to their account. For refunds on online deposits, contact the vendor's customer service. Have the inmate's full name and booking/ID ready.
