How to send messages, photos, and packages
Morgan County Jail uses JailATM for electronic mail and adding funds. Start by creating an account on JailATM, then use it to locate the inmate and send messages or make deposits. Phone calls, video visits, and electronic messaging often coexist in Alabama facilities, but exact services depend on the facility and its approved vendors. For phone or remote video services, you'll typically need the inmate's booking identifier from the jail roster and a funded account before calls can go through. Keep privacy in mind: calls and many electronic messages are monitored or recorded. Charges depend on the billing option you select.
