How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Wakulla Corrections Institute accepts inmate deposits through its Inmate Deposit System—either at the kiosk in the Sheriff's Office lobby or online at commissarydeposit.com. The online portal accepts credit and debit cards. You'll need the inmate's state, facility, and their inmate ID or name to complete the deposit. Cash, money orders, and personal checks aren't accepted. The only exception is a check issued by another detention facility or law enforcement agency. Keep in mind that deposited funds can be subject to collections for debts the inmate owes. Booking and daily sustenance fees may be charged and deducted from deposits, and unpaid balances can be forwarded to billing.
