Putting Money on an Inmate's Account at Miami‑Dade: What You Need to Know
Want to help someone at Miami‑Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation (MDCR)? All deposits go into their individual trust account. Once you have the right details—especially the facility number—the process is pretty straightforward.
When someone is booked into MDCR, any money collected during intake goes into their individual trust account. This is how staff track funds tied to that specific person.
Most families think of this as "commissary money" - and they're right. Funds from the trust account pay for commissary purchases. If you want to help your loved one buy basics while they're inside, this is the account you're adding money to.
Trust-account funds can also be used for self-bonding at MDCR. If your loved one is eligible to post their own bond, they can use money from this account to do it.
MDCR accepts deposits seven days a week through TouchPay. The most common problem? Mismatched information. Double-check the inmate's details before you hit submit.
