How to Send Money to Pinellas County Jail (FL)
Need to put money on someone's account at Pinellas County Jail? You have a few options: money orders, cash kiosks, and online deposits. The key is including the exact information the jail requires so your deposit gets credited correctly.
When someone is booked into Pinellas County Jail, any money they have on them gets credited to their personal inmate account. They don't keep cash inside the jail. Everything is handled through that account.

You can drop one off in person during the jail's stated weekday acceptance window, or mail it to Inmate Accounting. Prefer cash?
