What happens if my order exceeds the $25 product limit or 1 package per cycle?
The amount of online and phone orders is automatically calculated to prevent exceeding limits. Maximum $ 25 per product per inmate. If a mailed-in order exceeds the limit, we will remove products until it meets that limit. If an order has already been placed for the cycle we will hold it for the next cycle.
What happens if the recipient of my order is moved to a security level that does not allow packages?If your loved one becomes ineligible to receive packages after your order has shipped, facility personnel will return the package to Securepak via FedEx. We will issue a refund to the sender of the package for the merchandise only; the processing fee is non-refundable.
What happens if an inmate receives more than one package from family members or friends?
If an inmate receives more than the maximum amount of packages he or she is allowed, the order(s) will not be processed and the sender will receive a refund.

We will issue a refund for or replace broken, damaged, or missing products reported by facility staff. We cannot honor reports of discrepancies from inmates’ families or friends.
Can an item become out of stock or unavailable after I place my order?
Yes. If an item becomes out of stock or unavailable after the order is placed, Access Securepak will increase the quantities of items already ordered to use the funds from the unavailable items or issue a refund. This will depend on when the out of stock or unavailable item is expected to arrive at Access Securepak.
