Inmate Accounts

 
The Yuma County Sheriff’s Office recognizes the importance and need to make funds available to inmates. For your ease and convenience, the Yuma County Detention Center offers several ways to deposit money into inmate accounts.
 

Depositing Funds into Phone, Tablet & Chirper (Texting) Accounts

Inmate telephone services, Chirper devices (inmate texting devices), and tablet services are provided by Combined Public Communications (CPC). Family and friends can create an account through CPC to fund inmate phone, tablet or texting accounts. Email communication is available to the inmate through a tablet, attachments through the email service will not be viewable by the inmate. To create an account, visit the CPC website or contact their customer service.
  • Website: www.inmatesales.com
    Important: Depositors should be wary of scammers attempting to take advantage of tablet/chirper deposit solutions for inmates. When receiving a request to leave funds on an inmate’s account, ensure you are leaving money on www.inmatesales.com. Always be attentive of tiny variations in the URL. When in doubt, please enter the web address yourself.
  • Toll-Free Phone: (877) 998-5678

NOTE: Inmates also have the option to purchase phone time for their phone account through their commissary account.

Inmate Phone Account Options
Inmate phone accounts can be funded as follows:

  • Direct Pay Option: Call time is added to your phone number. The inmate can only call your phone number with the funds you deposit.

  • PIN Debit Online Option: Call time is added to the inmate’s PIN debit account, allowing them to call any phone number with the funds you deposit.
 

Depositing Funds into Commissary Account

Funds may be deposited into an inmate’s commissary account utilizing any of the methods listed below. Please note these funds cannot be used by the inmate for tablet related services.

Inmates may also use commissary funds to purchase phone time; however, they must wait until the weekly commissary order is processed before utilizing the phone time.
