Sending money to someone in custody gets confusing because every system has its own accounts and rules. For this facility, the one verified online portal is the GTL VisitMe site, which handles visitation account access and related actions. Never used that site? You can create an account using the "CLAIM ACCOUNT" link on the visitation page. The available information doesn't spell out deposit fees, accepted payment methods, or processing times. It's also unclear whether the visitation account is the same one used for sending money. Verify those details before you submit a payment.
