How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Money you send to someone at Wayne County Jail goes into their trust/commissary account. They can use it for commissary purchases, phone time, and other approved items. Two Wayne County-specific notes: starting January 31, 2025, the Clerk only accepts child support payments in cash. And if you overpay through GovPayNow, the extra gets applied to any outstanding Wayne County Community Corrections fees. For deposits, Indiana facilities typically offer online portals, mobile apps, phone deposits, and lobby kiosks. Some jails also accept mailed money orders with the correct deposit form. You'll need the inmate's name and facility ID (or other identifying details), and accepted payment types vary by deposit method.
