How to Add Money to an Inmate's Account at Multi County Jail — and What Happens to Leftover Funds
Need to put money on someone's commissary account at Multi-County Correctional Center? All deposits go through TouchPay. Here's how to add funds, what you'll need, when the money becomes available, and what happens to any balance left at release or transfer.
MCCC uses TouchPay for inmate account funding. You can pay online, by phone, or at the lobby kiosk using Visa, MasterCard, a debit card, or an electronic check. Cash is accepted at the kiosk only. TouchPay charges a convenience fee to use the system, so expect your total to be more than the deposit amount.
For online deposits, go to touchpaydirect.com. Prefer the phone? Call TouchPay at 1-866-232-1899. You can also deposit in person at the kiosk in the MCCC lobby.
