How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Mail a cashier's check or money order to El Paso County Jail, Attn: Bookkeeping – Inmate Funds, 2739 East Las Vegas Street, Colorado Springs, CO 80906.

For an electronic option, you can send money, post bail, or make parole/probation payments online through Access Corrections. Vendor fees apply.
