Sending Money

Sending money to someone at Carter County Detention Center typically goes through a third-party vendor rather than the jail itself. You can add funds through a vendor website or mobile app, phone-based deposits, a lobby kiosk (if one's available), or a mailed money order if the facility accepts them. Posting times vary. Whether money orders work, and whether deposits can cover bonds or fees, depends on Carter County's specific rules, so confirm before sending anything. Watch for processing fees too. Some payment methods tack on charges at checkout. If you're funding commissary, phone time, or care packages, the approved vendor or kiosk will walk you through finding the inmate and selecting the right service.
