How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Crawford County Jail?
There are two options for putting money on an inmate's books:
Choice 1 - Deposit Inmate Money Online
Crawford County Jail uses CommissaryDeposit.com to process all online deposits to an inmate's account. The company charges you a small fee for doing so, but the fee probably isn't as much as gas and parking would cost to take it to the jail in person.

Make the Money Order out to the inmate's name and put their Inmate ID# in memo section of the Money Order.
