How to Send Money to an Inmate at Ware County Jail: Requirements and JPay Fees

Before sending money to someone at Ware County Jail, make sure you're on their approved visitor list. Georgia's rule is straightforward: if you aren't approved to visit that person, you can't send them funds through any payment method. Not sure if you're approved? Confirm that first - otherwise your deposit may not go through.

  • Ask the inmate (if you can) whether you’re already on their approved visitor list
  • Call the facility to confirm your approval status
  • Have the inmate’s identifying information ready when you check (for example, their name and ID number, if you know it)
  • Don’t send money until you’ve confirmed you’re approved

Sending money online through JPay means paying a per-transaction fee based on the amount. Here's one tier worth knowing: an internet funds transfer of $0.01–$20.00 carries a $3.50 fee. That fee hits every time you submit a transfer, so multiple small deposits add up fast.

Fee heads-up: For JPay internet transfers, sending $0.01–$20.00 comes with a $3.50 fee per transaction.

JPay isn't the only way to send money, and fees vary by method. Having trouble completing a deposit? Don't guess - phone support is available. You can call and speak with a live agent 24/7.
