How to send messages, photos, and packages
Communication at Oklahoma State Penitentiary may include phone calls, video visits, and electronic messaging. The exact options depend on the facility's approved vendor. JPay advertises that select services can be accessed through a smartphone app, so mobile messaging or visits may be available. In most facilities, phone calls are outgoing only and typically recorded or monitored. You'll usually need to create an account with the approved vendor and register your phone number before receiving calls or joining video sessions. One thing to keep in mind: ConnectNetwork/ViaPath reported an August 2020 Telmate data exposure that affected thousands of users' personal information. Confirm the current vendor, app availability, and any security notices before registering.
