How to Send Money and Order Commissary for Someone at Newaygo County Jail
Putting money on someone's account (or ordering commissary directly) is one of the fastest ways to help while they're at Newaygo County Jail. Here are the options the jail lists, plus the limits and payment rules that can save you a wasted trip or a rejected payment.
Newaygo County Jail uses Canteen Tigg's Commissary Connections for commissary orders placed by family and friends. You can purchase basic personal care products, stationery and postage, candy, and other snacks through this service.
To place a commissary order by phone through Canteen Tigg's, call (866) 422-6833. Phone ordering is available Monday through Thursday, 8:00 am to 4:00 pm.
Keep the spending cap in mind when building your cart. Newaygo County Jail lists a $100 limit on all commissary orders through Canteen Tigg's. For payment, VISA, Mastercard, and American Express credit cards are accepted.
Prefer to skip the phone call? The jail also allows family and friends to order commissary for an inmate online through ExpressAccount.
If you can't send money online, you can deposit cash at the kiosk in the sheriff's office lobby. It's available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, though the jail notes there is a fee for using it. The facility also says not to send money orders, and that cash or money orders will not be accepted for online or commissary services.
The jail lists a couple of additional options. EZ MoneyLoad has a phone line at 1-888-497-2387 where an operator can walk you through the process. There's also I-Care: call 1-888-634-0034 to place and pay for a commissary order with a credit card. That order gets bundled with other orders headed to the facility that week.
