How to Put Money on an Inmate's Account at Upshur County Jail
Want to help someone at Upshur County Jail buy commissary items? You'll need to add money to their Commissary Trust Account. Here's how it works and the different ways to deposit funds.
Every person booked into Upshur County Jail gets a Commissary Trust Account created automatically. This is the account where the jail holds and tracks money for that specific inmate.
The Trust Account starts with whatever cash the inmate had on them at booking. From there, family and friends can add more money so the inmate has funds for commissary purchases and other allowed uses.
Deposit Methods
- ✓ Add funds in person by using the kiosk located in the jail lobby.
- ✓ The lobby kiosk accepts cash deposits.
- ✓ The lobby kiosk also accepts credit card deposits.
- ✓ Add funds remotely using a credit card by phone.
- ✓ Add funds remotely using a credit card through the deposit website.
Upshur County processes inmate Trust Account deposits through Access Corrections. Deposits go into the Upshur County Inmate Trust Account daily via ACH - standard electronic bank transfer.
Once there's money in the Trust Account, the inmate can place commissary orders by phone. They'll enter their booking number (SO number) and their Trust Account PIN. Purchases are limited to whatever balance is available.
Practical Tips
- ✓ Use the inmate’s correct booking number (SO number) when you’re trying to match money to the right Trust Account.
- ✓ Remember the Trust Account may already include funds the inmate had at booking, plus anything you add later.
- ✓ Keep your receipt or confirmation after you deposit, in case you need to track or troubleshoot a credit.
