Mail, photos, messaging, and phone/call options for staying in touch.
Medina County Jail runs most communication services through third-party vendors. Video visitation is available through Securus, with both on-site and remote options offered seven days a week. For messaging, the jail uses JPay's eMessaging platform (JPay Email has migrated to eMessaging), which you access through Securus Technologies. To add money to an inmate's account, go to JPAY.com, use the JPAY mobile app, or visit the on-site kiosk in the Medina County Sheriff Office lobby. Since these services run through vendors, account setup, payments, fees, and device requirements all follow vendor rules. Some calling options, like Direct Bill, may require a credit check and bill the recipient monthly.
