Bond is usually a county process, and payment options depend on the jail. Converse County Detention Center accepts bond payments by credit or debit card onsite or by phone through AllPaid. There's an 8.5% fee and a $50,000 per-transaction limit. To post bond by phone, call AllPaid at 888-604-7888. You'll need the inmate's full name and inmate ID number.
Commissary rules vary by facility, but tight limits on deposits and usage are common. One detention center's rules state that money goes into a personal commissary account after booking and can be used to purchase approved items. Funds cannot be transferred to another inmate's account. Deposits can only be made at a kiosk outside the visitation entrance or online at accesscorrections.com. Staff are prohibited from accepting funds sent through the U.S. Mail. At release or transfer, the facility normally issues a debit card for remaining commissary funds.
