How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Wichita County Jail uses TouchPay Holdings, LLC (doing business as GTL Financial Services) to handle deposits to inmate trust accounts. You'll typically go through the TouchPay or GTL deposit portal for online payments. Families often fund commissary or trust accounts through approved online vendors, kiosks, or mailed money orders and cashier's checks, though accepted methods and processing times vary by vendor. Some options may require you to be listed as an approved sender before funds go through. Phone and video services are handled separately through ConnectNetwork: phone calls require an AdvancePay account, and video visits require a registered and funded Video Visit account. Expect service fees on deposits, and never mail cash. Follow the centralized deposit instructions exactly to avoid returned payments.

Need to add money fast? The lobby kiosks are your best bet. Wichita County Jail has machines in the Law Enforcement Center lobby that accept cash, debit, or credit cards. There's also a kiosk on the 2nd floor of the Wichita County Courthouse — credit cards only — if you're already headed there for other business.
Deposits to inmate trust accounts at Wichita County Jail are handled by TouchPay Holdings, LLC d/b/a GTL Financial Services.
For phone calls, create and fund an AdvancePay account through ConnectNetwork. For video visits, register and fund a Video Visit account with ConnectNetwork, then schedule paid video sessions once your account is active.
Never send cash to the facility address, and don't include personal correspondence with money orders. Stick to the facility's centralized deposit instructions and approved payment methods so funds post correctly and aren't returned.
