How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
To send money to someone at Dayton Corrections Institution, you must be an approved visitor and use the ODRC-approved deposit process. Don't bring cash, money orders, packages, correspondence, or printed materials to visitation. Staff won't accept hand-delivered items; everything must go through the facility's mail processing. For tablet repairs, the payment must be the full $250 by money order or cashier's check made payable to ViaPath Technologies. Mail tablet repair payments to ViaPath Technologies, PO Box 3023, Houston, TX 77253. Before sending funds, confirm the approved deposit channels and vendor instructions to avoid rejected payments or scams. Third-party vendors often charge convenience fees.
