Want to deposit money in person? Monroe County Jail accepts cash and money orders Monday through Friday, 8:00am to 4:00pm.

Reminder: If you’re using a money order, write the inmate’s name clearly on it so it can be credited correctly.

JPay is often the easiest option if you can't get to the jail during business hours. You can add funds through the JPay website or their smartphone app.

Prefer to handle it by phone? Call JPay at 1-866-333-5729 to make a deposit.

  2. Sign in (or create an account) - follow the prompts to access the deposit tools.
  3. Complete the deposit for your person - choose the deposit option in JPay and follow the checkout steps to add funds to the inmate’s account.

Mailing a money order? Keep it simple. Write the inmate's name clearly on the money order, and don't include any letters in the same envelope - that can cause delays.

  • Write the inmate’s name clearly on the money order.
  • Do not enclose any letters with the money order.
  • Address the envelope to the facility’s money-order mailing address.
