Three Ways to Add Money to a Hood County Jail Inmate Account (kiosk, online, phone)

Need to put money on someone's account at Hood County Jail? The Sheriff's Office offers three options through TouchPay: a lobby kiosk at the Hood County Sheriff's Office, online deposits at TouchPayDirect.com (site #776048), or phone deposits via TouchPay's toll-free number. Both online and phone options are available 24/7 and accept credit or debit cards.

For in-person deposits, there's a TouchPay kiosk in the Hood County Sheriff's Office lobby. Bring a credit or debit card, and double-check the inmate's information before you hit submit - you want that money going to the right account.

Tip: Keep your receipt after you finish at the kiosk. If you ever need to track down a missing deposit, that receipt is your proof of the transaction.

Prefer to deposit from home? Head to TouchPayDirect.com and use Hood County Jail's site number 776048. The site accepts credit and debit cards, and since it's available 24/7, you can make a deposit whenever works for you - even at midnight.

  • Have the inmate’s name and identifying information ready before you start
  • Enter Hood County Jail site #776048 exactly as listed
  • Use a credit or debit card you can verify charges on (in case you need to reference the transaction)
  • Save your confirmation details after you submit the payment
  • If the deposit doesn’t show up like you expect, contact TouchPay support with your confirmation information

You can also deposit by phone. Call 1-866-232-1899 and follow the prompts to pay with a credit or debit card. Like the online option, phone deposits are available 24/7.

Before you call: Have the inmate’s information and your card in front of you, and write down any confirmation details you’re given. If there’s a problem with the deposit posting, those details make it much easier to get help.
