How Do You Deposit Money for an Inmate in the Richland County Jail & Detention Center?

There are FOUR options for putting money on an inmate's books:

Option 1 - Dropping Money at the Jail
Bring money to the jail in person. 
Either the jail personnel will process the Inmate Account payment or you will use a Jail ATM self-serve kiosk in the lobbies that accepts cash, debit or credit cards.

Option 2 - Deposit Inmate Money Online

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