How to send messages, photos, and packages
Clay County Jail offers remote video visits every day, with set morning, afternoon, and evening windows. You schedule and pay through InmateSales.com, where you can see available time slots and current rates during booking. Phone service for inmates is provided by Combined Public Communications (CPC), and the jail states that all telephone calls may be monitored and recorded. Remote communication typically runs through third-party platforms. On your end, you'll use a web browser or mobile app; the person inside uses a tablet or terminal. Phone services commonly require prepaid accounts to receive calls. Email or tablet messaging may require purchasing credits and could be screened by staff.
