How to deposit funds, commissary, and payment options
Adding money for someone at Yuba County Jail typically means choosing from a few common deposit options: online or mobile portals, phone deposits, lobby kiosks, or U.S. Postal money orders. Which methods are accepted depends on the facility and vendor. Funds in an inmate trust account can be used for commissary items, phone time, hygiene products, and other permitted purchases. Keep in mind that deposits may be reduced by court-ordered restitution or other authorized deductions. Timing varies too: electronic deposits may take hours to days, kiosk deposits post on the facility schedule, and vendors often charge fees. Separately, Yuba County Local Rules include a provision about payment of filing fees (Rule 2.1).
