Overview

Sending money to someone at SCI Frackville starts with one check: make sure you have SCI Frackville and not SCI Mahanoy. Both are PA DOC prisons in the town of Frackville, sitting at separate addresses with separate inmate accounts, so money sent under the wrong institution or PA DOC number is the top reason a deposit stalls. Once you have confirmed the person and their number, fund their JPay account. JPay is the deposit service the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections (PA DOC) uses at every state prison. See Send Money to SCI Frackville for the full guide to every deposit method, the caps, and where to mail a money order. For a hold on the account or a deposit that did not post, SCI Frackville’s business office line is (570) 874-4516.
