SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING BAIL AND BOND SERVICES VIA A MONEY TRANSFER NETWORK

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for processing of bail payments and/or bond payments using resources of a money transfer network are disclosed. In an embodiment, a bail payment may be made via a money transfer transaction between a sending party (e.g., a family member or friend of a defendant) and a receiving party (e.g., the court that set the defendant's bail). In an additional or alternative embodiment, a bond payment may made via a money transfer transaction between the sending party and a receiving party (e.g., the bail bondsman entity).
