How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
To send money to someone at Central Florida Reception Center, mail a money order through JPay. Make it payable to JPay and write the inmate's name and ID on the memo line so funds go to the right account. Include a completed JPay deposit slip and a copy of your photo ID (driver's license, state ID, or passport), then mail everything to: JPay, PO Box 260010, Hollywood, FL 33026. Only senders on the inmate's Approved Visitors List can use this method. JPay doesn't charge fees for money orders, cashier's checks, or certified bank drafts, and approved mailed money orders process within 10 business days. Questions? Call JPay at 800-574-5729.

Phone calls are often the fastest way to stay connected, but the costs and rules can trip you up if you don't know what to expect. Here's how calling works at Central Florida Reception Center under GTL/ConnectNetwork—setting up prepaid calling, the per-minute rate, and the limits you'll run into.
