COMMISSARY
The Jail Commissary has a wide variety of items for sale to inmates, including board games, snack foods and pharmacy items. Money can be placed on an inmate's account either by mail or in person at the Inmate Records counter. Cash, money orders, or cashier's checks are accepted at the counter, but money mailed to the jail must be in the form of money orders or cashier's checks made payable to Santa Barbara Sheriff's Custodial Account. Be sure that the inmate's name and county ID number (CID) are written correctly on the money order or cashier's check. NO PERSONAL CHECKS WILL BE ACCEPTED.
We have a special arrangement with Western Union to allow for the transfer of money via the Quick Collect Service. The Quick Collect Service is a fast and easy way to get money put on an inmate's account, because it ensures same-day delivery. To use the Quick Collect Service, follow these steps:
1. Call 1 (800) 325-6000 to locate the Western Union Agent location nearest you.
2. At the Agent location, fill in the blue Quick Collect Payment Form completely, including the following information:

3. Be sure that the inmate's name and County ID number are correctly written on the form.
