How to Send Money to Someone at Roxbury C.I.: All Your Options Explained
Money deposits at Roxbury C.I. go through ConnectNetwork, and you've got several ways to pay. Online deposits through the ConnectNetwork website or mobile app accept Visa and MasterCard. Prefer the phone? Their automated system works too. You can also use self-service kiosks (cash, credit, or debit), make cash payments at participating retail stores, or send deposits by mail.
How fast your deposit posts depends on the account type and how you pay. For AdvancePay, PinDebit, and DebitLink accounts, automated deposits - online, app, phone, or kiosk - are available immediately. Trust Fund works differently. Even with automated payment, Trust Fund deposits are transmitted to the facility within one business day, so there's a delay before the money is actually applied. If timing matters, that "immediate vs. next business day" difference is usually what determines which option to choose.
Mailing a payment or using retail walk-in cash? Plan for extra time. These deposits are generally processed the next business day after they're received - not when you send them. Factor in mail delivery or the time it takes for a retail payment to reach ConnectNetwork before you count on the funds being available.
Note: Even after ConnectNetwork posts or transmits a deposit, when the money actually becomes available can depend on Roxbury C.I.'s own policies. If you need funds for something time-sensitive, confirm timing before relying on a same-day deposit.
For the simplest route, pay online or through the mobile app. Sign in (or create an account), select the person you're paying for, enter the amount and your card details, and submit. The ConnectNetwork website and apps accept Visa and MasterCard and are available 24/7. Phone payments work similarly - just follow the voice prompts. ConnectNetwork's automated phone system accepts Visa and MasterCard around the clock.
One thing that trips people up on phone payments: for Trust Fund or PIN Debit deposits, the system may ask for Roxbury C.I.'s ConnectNetwork "Site ID." Have it ready before you call so you're not stuck mid-transaction.
Kiosks are a solid in-person option. ConnectNetwork kiosks are typically in facility visitation areas, but you may also find them at government offices, probation offices, or courthouses. They accept cash, credit, or debit, and deposits post immediately.
- Start the deposit in your ConnectNetwork account online - begin the payment process for the Roxbury C.I. account you’re trying to fund.
- Finish by paying cash at a participating retail store - complete the transaction in person at one of the participating locations.
- Use a convenient chain if you have one nearby - cash deposits are available at participating retail locations nationwide (about 26,000), including Walmart, ACE, Kmart, and Kroger.
Mail works if you don't use cards or want a paper trail. For AdvancePay, send a check or money order payable to "AdvancePay Service Department." Include the inmate's account number so the payment gets credited correctly.
Mailing a Trust Fund deposit? Only money orders are accepted - no personal checks, no cashier's checks. Double-check the Trust Fund mailing instructions before sending anything so you don't lose time with a rejected payment.
