How to Send Money to Facility

If your facility uses JPay, the fastest way to send money is an online payment with a credit or debit card. No mailing time, no in-person processing. Just log in and pay.

JPay charges a deposit fee on online payments, and the amount depends on how much you send. Example online tiers listed by JPay: $0.00–$20.00 has a $2.95 fee, $20.01–$100.00 has a $5.95 fee, $100.01–$200.00 has a $7.95 fee, and $200.01–$300.00 has a $9.95 fee. These tiers can change, so check the current amounts before you finalize your payment.

Steps-to-follow

  • Confirm the facility accepts JPay for money deposits
  • Use JPay online with a credit or debit card if you need the fastest option
  • Review your deposit amount before submitting, since fees are based on the amount sent

Fee heads-up: JPay deposit fees are tiered. Example online tiers range from $2.95 for $0.00–$20.00 up to $9.95 for $200.01–$300.00. Verify the current fee schedule before you pay.

Before you send anything, confirm that this facility accepts JPay and that online credit or debit card deposits are available for the person you're sending funds to. The accepted method can vary by system or policy, and using the wrong option can slow things down.

  • Check the current JPay fee tiers for online deposits before you submit your payment
  • Confirm the fee shown at checkout matches what you expect for your deposit amount
  • Save your confirmation or receipt so you can reference the exact fee and amount later if there is a problem
