How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Putnamville Corrections Facility accepts mailed money orders for Trust Fund deposits. Include a completed deposit form and keep each money order to $300 or less—deposits go to ViaPath Financial Services for processing. The money goes into the inmate's trust fund account, which they use for commissary purchases like snacks, hygiene items, and other approved products. You can also add funds by phone using these toll-free lines: AdvancePay (800-483-8314), PIN Debit (855-706-2445), or Trust Fund (888-988-4768). Whichever method you choose, you'll need the inmate's name and facility ID. Payment types and posting times vary by channel.
