Credit/Debit Card

The fastest way to send money to an inmate is through our vendor TouchPay. TouchPay accepts credit and debit card transactions to add money to an inmate’s trust account.  This service is available online at www.touchpaydirect.com or over the telephone at 1-866-232-1899.

Cash funds may be deposited in a kiosk located in the Clark County Detention Center lobby. We do not recommend sending cash through the mail.

The information required to make a deposit:

  •  Clark County Detention Center Facility #289101

  •  Inmate ID #

Transactions will be posted to the inmate's account within 24 hours (usually within 15 minutes).

It is the responsibility of the person depositing the funds to provide complete and correct information.

Funds will be deposited to the account of the inmate selected by the remitter. The Clark County Detention Center is not liable for funds deposited to an incorrect account.
