Bail by Card

Cash bail can be paid by card through GovPayEXP. You need the person’s name, date of birth, inmate ID, court name and the bail amount. The fee is 9%, at least $5, and is not refunded. Information: 585-268-9200.

While the Money Order Clears

A money order can take up to 10 days to reach their commissary account. A letter gives them something to read while they wait. Pigeonly prints one you type on your phone and mails it to Belmont.
