Sending Money to Perry Inmates: All Deposit Methods, Limits, and Timing
Getting money onto someone's account at Perry Correctional Facility comes down to three options: mail a money order to GTL Financial Services with the deposit form, drop off cash at a participating retail store, or use ConnectNetwork's automated channels (online, app, phone, or kiosk) for the fastest transmission.
You have a few ways to send money to someone at Perry Correctional Facility. The right choice depends on what's most convenient for you and how quickly the funds need to arrive. Your options: (1) mail a money order with the required deposit form to GTL Financial Services, (2) make a cash deposit at one of thousands of participating retail locations, or (3) use ConnectNetwork's automated channels - website, mobile app, toll-free phone, or kiosk. Automated deposits transmit to the facility within one business day, though actual availability still depends on facility policies.
To mail a deposit, send a completed deposit form along with your money order to GTL Financial Services at: 10005 Technology Blvd West Suite 130, Dallas, TX 75220. Fill out the form completely - it tells GTL which trust account should receive the funds.
- ✓ Completed deposit form (filled out completely)
- ✓ Money order (issued in U.S. Dollars)
- ✓ Inmate’s full name and correct ID number on the form
- ✓ Amount that does not exceed $300 per money order
Note: Money orders used for trust deposits must be issued in U.S. Dollars, and the maximum amount per money order is $300.
Prefer paying in cash? SCDC allows walk-in deposits at a large network of retail stores. Since April 7, 2019, you can make cash deposits for SCDC phone or trust accounts at over 26,000 locations nationwide, including Walmart, Kmart, and Kroger.

Need the money there fast? ConnectNetwork's automated deposits - via website, mobile app, toll-free phone, or kiosk - transmit to the facility within one business day. Keep in mind that facility policies can still affect when funds actually become available.
Tip: Automated deposits are typically the fastest option - transmitted within one business day. Just know that facility policies may still determine when the money can actually be used.
Requesting a refund from a GTL account? Expect it to take a while. Refunds are mailed to your address within 2 to 4 weeks after GTL receives the request.
Choosing between methods? Think about what matters most to you. Automated ConnectNetwork deposits (online, app, phone, or kiosk) transmit within one business day - best when timing is critical. Walk-in retail deposits work well if you're paying cash and want flexibility; there are over 26,000 participating stores nationwide. Mailing a money order is straightforward if you prefer a traditional paper process, but remember: the limit is $300 per money order, and it must be in U.S. Dollars.
- ✓ If you have cash and want an in-person option: use walk-in retail deposits (available at 26,000+ participating stores)
- ✓ If you need the deposit transmitted quickly: use ConnectNetwork automated channels (website, app, toll-free phone, or kiosk) for one-business-day transmission
- ✓ If you prefer mailing payment: send a U.S.-Dollar money order (max $300) and the completed deposit form to GTL Financial Services, 10005 Technology Blvd West Suite 130, Dallas, TX 75220
Reminder: Automated deposits are transmitted to the facility within one business day, while GTL refunds are mailed within 2 to 4 weeks after the request is received.
