Warning: Don't mail cash, checks, or credit cards to an inmate. The jail will return them.

Stewart County Detention Center directs people to use SmartDeposit for funding an inmate's commissary account. Stick with the jail's posted deposit vendor so your money goes to the right place.

Prepare Info

  • ✓ The inmate’s full legal name
  • ✓ The inmate’s Offender ID number
  • ✓ Enough details to correctly identify the right person in the SmartDeposit system (start with name and Offender ID)

The Offender ID matters. The jail uses it as part of the official addressing format for inmate mail, and having the correct ID helps make sure funds land on the right inmate's account.
