How to Send Money to Oklahoma State Penitentiary, OK (OK)
Before you send money, know the two limits that most often affect deposits: the maximum account balance and the maximum amount per JPay money order.
At Oklahoma State Penitentiary (OK), inmate trust accounts have a maximum balance of $99,999,999.99. That number is extremely high, but it is still a hard cap. The simple rule: your deposits can't push the total balance over the limit.
Sending funds by JPay money order? There's a per-money-order limit too. A single JPay money order deposit maxes out at $999.99, so larger amounts need to be split across multiple money orders (or handled through another approved deposit option).
Note: The $99,999,999.99 maximum balance and the $999.99 maximum per JPay money order are the only limits covered here. If you're planning a large deposit or multiple deposits, verify whether any additional limits apply before sending money.
Steps-to-follow
- ✓ If you use a JPay money order, keep each money order at $999.99 or less.
- ✓ For more than $999.99 total, plan to send multiple money orders rather than one larger money order.
- ✓ Track what you have sent so you do not accidentally exceed the per-money-order limit on a later deposit.
If you and other family members are depositing money around the same time, coordinate so the account balance stays under the $99,999,999.99 maximum. This matters most when multiple deposits are going in or you're building up a larger total over time.
What-to-verify
- ✓ The current maximum inmate trust account balance ($99,999,999.99) and whether any exceptions or additional account restrictions apply.
- ✓ Whether the JPay money order maximum is still $999.99 per single money order.
- ✓ What other deposit methods are currently accepted for Oklahoma, if you need an option besides JPay money orders.
- ✓ Whether there are any additional limits not covered here (for example, per-deposit, per-day, or per-week limits).
- Check the official deposit instructions you are using: Confirm the current JPay money order limit of $999.99 before you buy the money order.
- Confirm limits before sending large totals: If you are planning multiple money orders, confirm the current rules for Oklahoma inmate accounts so you stay within allowed balances.
- Keep a simple record: Save receipts and write down the amount and date of each money order so you can manage totals across multiple deposits.
Warning: If a deposit would push the account over the maximum balance, it may be rejected or delayed. Check the current cap before sending large amounts.
