The easiest way to send money to an inmate is by visiting one of the 18 JPay Inmate kiosks located in the lobby of the James "Jay" H. Byrd Unit. You can pay with cash or credit card, and there will be a small fee.

You can also pay money to an inmate online by visiting this website.

Phone calls

Setting up money for an inmate to make a phone call is the same as sending money to an inmate. You can pay at a kiosk, or you can set up a money deposit online.

Inmates at the James "Jay" H. Byrd Unit cannot receive phone calls, so they are depended upon having money in their account to be able to make outgoing phone calls. Phone calls will be monitored and possibly recorded by jail staff.
