Read full guideYakima County Jail requires all inmate account deposits to go through TouchPay. You can use the TouchPay website, mobile app, or the kiosk in the Main Jail lobby. No other deposit methods are accepted. Cash, personal checks, payroll checks, and money orders won't work, with one exception: tribal per-capita checks can be mailed. If mailing a tribal per-capita check, mark it "Attention: Inmate Accounts" and include the inmate's full name and booking number, or it may be returned. Funds in an inmate's trust account can be used for commissary purchases and to pay fees or medical obligations. Families can also order ICare care packages online through the commissary vendor. Your TouchPay username is the email you used to create the account or your IVR account number.
