How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Sending money to someone at Newton County Jail is straightforward once you know a couple of rules. First, the jail doesn't accept bank drafts—you'll need another option. Common deposit methods include on-site kiosks, online portals, walk-in retail cash payments, or mailed deposits (availability varies). For property replacements like titles, expect a $9.00 standard fee or $39.00 for FAST TRACK processing. Once deposited, funds go into the inmate's commissary/trust account for purchases, phone time, laundry, or other approved charges. Posting times depend on the method—automated options are usually fastest. Double-check that you enter the inmate's name, ID, and facility correctly to avoid delays.
