How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Florida State Prison accepts mailed money orders for inmate accounts, but you must be on the inmate's Approved Visitors List to send one. Include a copy of your photo ID (driver's license, state ID, or passport) with each money order, and complete the JPay deposit form when required. The form lists a maximum of $999.99 per money order. No JPay fee applies to money orders, cashier's checks, or certified bank drafts. Once JPay receives an approved money order, expect processing within ten (10) business days. Prefer not to mail funds? Other options include online portals, lobby kiosks, or phone deposits—follow vendor instructions and confirm details on the facility page before sending money.
