Coweta County Jail, GA

Coweta County Jail no longer holds face-to-face visits for routine visitation. Instead, visits are conducted by video, and you’ll need to register at jailatm.com to request and schedule a session ahead of time. Attorneys have separate options: they can set up an attorney account on jailatm.com to use a private video booth, or they may arrange face-to-face contact in the jail area. Be aware that inmates in disciplinary segregation can only receive visits from attorneys, law-enforcement personnel, and facility chaplains. Dress code enforcement is strict; if you don’t comply, your visit can be terminated and you may be barred temporarily or permanently. Plan ahead, and bring a government-issued photo ID for check-in.

Here's the key rule for staying in touch at Coweta County Jail: inmates can't receive incoming phone calls. Your loved one can place outbound calls daily between 8:00 am and 10:30 pm, depending on jail operations. Tablet and kiosk access follows a set schedule: 8:00 am–1:00 pm and 6:30 pm–11:00 pm. Got a billing problem or need to block unwanted calls? Contact Paytel at (800) 729-8355. You can also reach out to the jail directly to request a block. Phone and communication services run through third-party vendors, so make sure your account is set up and funded before you expect calls or video sessions.

Writing to someone at Coweta County Jail? Personal correspondence goes through a JailATM Atlanta address—not the jail's 560 Greison Trail location. Include the inmate's full name and inmate number on every piece of mail. Postcards sent to 560 Greison Trail get returned to sender (this changed 01/01/2021), so use the JailATM routing instead. The jail doesn't accept outside items or packages from the public; anything not allowed gets sent back. The only items accepted inside an envelope are legal mail and money orders. Money orders for inmate funds can still be sent to 560 Greison Trail, Newnan, GA 30263.

Adding money to an inmate account at Coweta County Jail? You have three options: mail a money order payable to Coweta County Detention Center (include the inmate's name and ID), use the bonding-area ATM with cash or card, or deposit online through jailatm.com. Fees and limits apply: $2.50 per deposit for money orders and cash, 10% for credit/debit deposits, and a $100 maximum per transaction. Timing matters for commissary—money must arrive by Sunday at 11:00 pm to be available that week. Later deposits post the following week. Bond payments have stricter rules. Each bond instrument requires a $20 non-refundable fee paid in exact cash. During business hours, cash bonds must be paid by MoneyGram or cashier/bank checks from local Coweta banks. After hours, only MoneyGram money orders are accepted. Property bonds must meet Coweta County requirements, and out-of-county property bonds must be prepared and delivered by the other county's sheriff in a sealed package.
