What is inmate accounts?

Inmate accounts are financial accounts set up for individuals incarcerated in correctional facilities. These accounts allow inmates to receive money from friends and family, deposit earnings from prison work programs, and use funds to purchase approved items such as commissary goods, phone calls, or other services. The management of these accounts ensures that all transactions are recorded and comply with facility regulations. Inmate accounts are typically overseen by a dedicated department within the correctional facility to maintain security and transparency.
