How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
You can add money to an incarcerated person's account at Murphysboro Re-Entry Life Skills to cover commissary purchases, phone minutes, and other approved charges. Funding is typically done through facility-approved vendors and prepaid options: online deposits, lobby or visitation kiosks, retail agents, or mail-in deposits sent to the vendor. Deposits usually go into the person's trust or commissary account and can be applied to outstanding balances or obligations. Double-check the recipient's full name and booking or ID number before sending anything. For phone funding, you have two main options. You can add money to the trust account so the person can buy minutes through commissary, or set up an ICSolutions prepaid account to receive calls. Enter your GTL Visitor ID during ICSolutions registration to help expedite approval. If you have Securus Advance Connect funds, they will not transfer automatically to ICSolutions. Contact Securus about refunds. Posting times vary by method.
