Before sending any money, confirm you have the right person and their correct identifiers. The Alachua County Sheriff's Office has an online inmate lookup page where you can search by name or booking number. This helps you avoid putting funds on the wrong account.

One common option worth checking is Access Corrections. They offer online services that let you send money to an incarcerated person, which can be convenient if you can't handle a payment in person. Confirm the facility accepts this method before you proceed.
If you're trying to get someone released rather than adding commissary funds, Access Corrections also offers online bail payments. This is separate from depositing money for an inmate's use, so make sure you're choosing the right option.
