How to send messages, photos, and packages
Wichita County Jail offers several ways to stay connected: video visits and phone calls. Video visitation can happen at a lobby video station (for on-site visitors), from a personal computer, or through the Visit Now Android app at select facilities. For in-person visits, you use a visitor station in the lobby while the inmate uses one in their housing pod. To get started with video visitation, register and fund a ConnectNetwork Video Visit account. Then suggest a time to the inmate, wait for their confirmation, and log in at the scheduled time. Free video visits are credited to the inmate's account. Friends and Family can only use a free visit by suggesting it and meeting the vendor's funding conditions. For phone calls, create and fund an AdvancePay account with ConnectNetwork. You may also need to complete Telmate identity verification before your number can accept calls.
