How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options

Commissary is managed by Tiger Correctional Services, and orders must be completed by Wednesday before 4:00 PM. The facility does not accept money orders. For adding funds, use the jail's web deposit option. Processing times vary by method, with online deposits typically posting faster than mailed or retail payments. Some facilities also offer on-site kiosks, walk-in retail payments, or mailed deposits. Funds go to a commissary or trust account for purchases and other charges. Always include the inmate's name and ID so the money routes correctly.
