Send Money and Commissary at Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution, OR.

Review available deposit, commissary, money order, and online payment information for sending money to an inmate at Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution, OR.

Overview

Sending money to someone at Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution starts with one key step: figure out whether you're funding commissary/trust or the phone and communication account, since these are separate. Many facilities offer several ways to add funds (approved third-party vendor websites or phone lines, lobby kiosks, and sometimes mail or in-person deposits), but available options vary by facility. If mail deposits are accepted, you'll typically need a money order or cashier's check. Include the incarcerated person's name and ID so the payment posts correctly. For calls and visit-related communication at this facility, ICSolutions handles everything. You must create an ICSolutions account and validate your phone number. DOC staff cannot set up or validate those accounts for you.

How to Send Money to Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution (OR)

If you want to support someone at Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution, start by setting up your communication account. As of October 17, 2022, friends and family need to create an ICSolutions account and complete phone number validation before they can receive calls from an incarcerated person. One thing to be upfront about: the facility-specific guidance available here covers the ICSolutions account and phone validation process, not money deposits. This page does not include confirmed details on money transfer vendors, deposit methods (online, phone, mail, kiosk), fees, limits, processing times, or in-person cash policies for EOCI. Verify those money-specific details separately before sending anything.

Common Questions

How do I add money to an inmate at Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution?

Can I send cash by mail to Eastern Oregon Corrections Institution?

Do not send cash by mail. Where mail deposits are accepted, they typically require a money order or cashier’s check, and you should include the incarcerated person’s name and ID so the funds post correctly.

Who do I contact for help setting up an ICSolutions account?
