How to Send Money to Someone at Clark County Detention Center (CCDC)

Need the fastest option? CCDC uses TouchPay for credit and debit card deposits. You can send money online or by phone, and deposits typically post within about 15 minutes - 24 hours at most. Whichever TouchPay route you choose, have the facility number, inmate's name, and inmate ID number ready so the funds land in the right trust account.

Prefer to deposit cash? There's a kiosk in the Clark County Detention Center lobby that accepts cash deposits to inmate accounts. It's a solid same-day option if you can go in person.

You can also mail a check or money order to CCDC's PO Box - just include the inmate's name and ID number on the address line. Mailed deposits come with a hold period, so expect a delay. CCDC doesn't recommend sending cash through the mail.

CCDC has a cash kiosk in the detention center lobby. If you're nearby and need to add cash the same day, this is the way to do it.

To send funds by mail, address the envelope with the inmate's name and ID number like this: "Inmate Name – Inmate ID Number." Mail it to: Clark County Detention Center, PO Box 43059, Las Vegas, NV 89116.

Note: CCDC does not recommend sending cash through the mail. Use a check or money order instead.

Mailing a check or money order? Plan for a delay. All checks and money orders are subject to a 10-business-day hold. Weekends and holidays don't count, so depending on timing, it can take longer than two calendar weeks.

  • Personal checks
  • Two-party checks
  • Checks issued from foreign banks

How money "releases" work depends on where the inmate is housed. Inmates in permanent housing can only release funds to a legitimate business or legal entity. Inmates in booking can release funds to an individual, a business, or a legal entity - and those releases aren't subject to a 24-hour hold. Anyone picking up released funds must show a valid government-issued photo ID.

Former inmate trying to retrieve money left on a trust or commissary account? CCDC offers two options. You can show up at the Clark County Detention Center with valid photo ID, or mail a notarized letter to: Clark County Detention Center, Attn: Inmate Accounts, 330 S. Casino Center Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89101.
