How Does it Work?
The Process...
The eBONDS™ process begins with a Bail Bond Agent logging into the eBONDS portal, which is integrated into the jail’s JMS system, to create a bond application.
Once submitted, a Jailer reviews and certifies the bond application for book out.
The inmate signs the bond electronically and can then be released. Copies of the secure, signed bond documents are immediately available for the inmate’s jail record and the bond agent.
