JPay Email Service allows users to purchase stamps in order to send messages to inmates in certain facilities. A single page approximately 4,800 characters will need a stamp. The longer messages the users will send, the more stamps will be needed.
The users are allowed to attach photo, e-card or video attachment with their message using additional postage. The email can be delivered through www.JPay.com or JPay Mobile App. In order to buy the stamp, the users will need to use a credit or debit card (collectively ‘Bank Card’).
