How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
You can add money to someone's account at Siskiyou County Jail by mailing a money order or cashier's check made payable to the incarcerated person. The jail also accepts certain incoming items: letters and postcards, newspapers and magazines sent directly from the publisher, and approved books (check facility rules for specifics). Other deposit channels like online portals, phone deposits, or lobby kiosks may be available, but this depends on the county and vendor. Confirm what Siskiyou County accepts before sending anything. Have the person's full name and booking or facility ID ready so the payment posts to the correct account. Electronic deposits typically clear faster than mailed money orders. Never mail cash. Funds in a trust account cover commissary purchases and phone time, but may be reduced by court-ordered deductions.
