How to Send Money or Make Online Payments Related to Niagara County Correctional Facility (what we can confirm)

The clearest facility-specific payment info we can confirm comes from the GovPayNow/AllPaid portal. It lists "Niagara County Correctional Facility" with PLC code 7684 - specifically for CIVIL PAYMENTS.

Access Corrections advertises services for sending money to incarcerated people, posting bail, and making parole or probation payments online. That's what the vendor offers in general - but it doesn't confirm that Niagara County Correctional Facility actually uses Access Corrections for any of these.

From these sources alone, we can't confirm what Niagara County Correctional Facility uses for inmate trust or commissary deposits - the money your loved one spends inside. We also can't confirm whether Access Corrections is the facility's active provider for that. And we can't say GovPayNow/AllPaid (PLC: 7684) handles inmate deposits, because that listing is explicitly for CIVIL PAYMENTS, a different category entirely.

1. Call the number tied to the payment listing - Use (716) 438-3423 and tell them you’re trying to confirm the correct way to make a payment related to Niagara County Correctional Facility.
2. Say what kind of payment you’re trying to make - Ask them to confirm whether you’re dealing with a civil payment (often handled differently) or an inmate deposit.
3. Ask for the exact vendor name and the exact process - Have them tell you which payment service to use (and whether it’s GovPayNow/AllPaid or something else).
4. Confirm the identifiers you must enter - Ask what information is required to apply the payment correctly (for example, any inmate identifiers or reference details they need you to provide).
5. Verify the code or account details before you submit - If they tell you to use GovPayNow/AllPaid, confirm whether you should be using PLC: 7684 for your situation.
6. Double-check contact details if you’re mailing anything - If they instruct you to mail paperwork or payment-related documents, confirm whether they want mail sent to PO Box 496 (Attn: Civil Division) or to 5526 Niagara St. Ext., Lockport, NY 14094.
