There are two ways to send money to an inmate in the Algoa Correctional Center:

Algoa Correctional Center uses the services of JPAY for you to send money to an inmate's trust fund / commissary account. 



You can send money to an inmate/offender's commissary/spendable account through the Send Money page.
There are several ways to send money to an inmate/offender.

  1. Online payments
  2. Over the phone by calling 800-574-5729
  3. MoneyGram
  4. If you wish to send cash you can use MoneyGram. MoneyGram has many convenient locations nationwide.
    The following establishments will always have MoneyGram services:
    Walmart
    7-11
    CVS Pharmacy

You will need:
Inmate's Correctional ID number and last name
The facility name or receive code.
You can visit the MoneyGram website to find locations near you.

        5. Money Order - Inmate's Name must be on the Money Order

        6. Lobby Kiosk
            You can use a debit or credit card in the lobby kiosk to send funds to an inmate/offender.



Algoa Correctional Center also allows you to send money to an inmate's trust fund / commissary account by sending a Money Order.

The Money Order must be made payable to the Missouri Department of Corrections and be accompanied by a Department of Corrections deposit slip.

Each offender has access to deposit forms and can send the slips to you at any time, or you can print one out here.

Once completed, mail to this address:

Offender Finance Office
Missouri Department of Corrections
P.O. Box 1609
Jefferson City, MO 65102

Don't enclose anything else in the envelope, as the office processes money transactions only. Fill out the slip COMPLETELY, and in either blue or black ink.

If you have questions, call the Offender Finance Office at 573-526-6445.

It takes about 1-3 days to post in the inmate's account. They can check on it from their unit.
