How to Send Money to Someone at SCI Greene Using JPay

You can add money to someone's account at SCI Greene through the JPay website. Look up the person you're sending funds to, choose your deposit amount, and complete payment. The money gets applied to their account once the transaction processes.

Prefer to handle it by phone? Call JPay at 800-574-5729 to make a deposit for someone at SCI Greene.

Money orders work too - they're processed through JPay. Make sure the inmate's information is clearly written so the funds get credited to the right account. Keep a copy of the money order and your receipt in case you need to track it later. Mail JPay money orders and deposit slips to: JPay, 717 Market Street, Ste. 423, Lemoyne, PA 17043.

Note: Some state prisons have lobby kiosks for deposits. If you plan to use one, check with JPay or call ahead - kiosks aren't always available.

Using a credit card through JPay? There's a $300 limit per card every 72 hours. Need to send more? Wait for the window to reset or use a different payment method.

Money orders cap at $999.99 each. If you need to send more, you can mail multiple money orders at once - just keep each one under the $999.99 limit.

For cash deposits via MoneyGram, the limit is $5,000 per transaction. Fees vary by agent, so confirm the total cost before you finalize.

  1. Get a money order and fill it out clearly - Include the inmate’s details so JPay can apply the deposit to the right SCI Greene account.
  2. Add a deposit slip (if you have one) - If you’re using a JPay deposit slip, complete it and include it with the money order.
  3. Make a copy for your records - Keep a copy of the money order and your receipt before you mail anything.
  4. Mail it to JPay - Send the money order (and deposit slip, if included) to: JPay, 717 Market Street, Ste. 423, Lemoyne, PA 17043.

Note: Mailed payments can take time to post. Use tracking when you send it and keep your receipt - you'll need both if you have to follow up with JPay.

Phone & Messaging

How to Contact an Inmate at Facility

Before helping your loved one use any in-facility communication technology, there's one documented policy to be aware of: inmates and reentrants can be held financially responsible for losses, costs, or damages they cause to Department information technology systems if the damage is intentional or negligent. This policy can apply broadly to technology used inside the facility, including devices or systems for messaging, video communication, or other IT-based services. That's the only facility-specific communication detail covered by the evidence provided here. Phone numbers, vendor names, messaging rules, visiting or video schedules, fee amounts, and how charges are calculated aren't included. You'll need to confirm those details directly with the facility.
