www.securustech.net Inmate Debit Account: How do I check my Securus account balance?
A Securus Debit account is owned by the incarcerated individual and used to pay for Securus services offered at their facility. This is NOT a commissary account. You can fund a Securus Debit account without having your own calling account.
This may include services such as phone calls, eMessaging stamps, tablet media (games, music, and movies) as well as Video Connect sessions.
