Is it your first time to access JPay? If so, and you want to use this website to be able to communicate with your incarcerated one, it means that you need to know about the homepage navigation menu on that site so that you are able to know the function of each menu.
First, let me tell you that according to the HubSpot site, the navigation menu is an organized list of links to other web pages, usually internal pages and most commonly they appear in page headers or sidebars across a website and it permits visitors to quickly access the most useful pages.
If you access the JPay website, there is a line of menus at the top of the website including Inmate Search, Prison Search, Help and System Status. Besides, there are also social media icons such as Twitter and Facebook in the left of these menus and also a Login button at the right side of these menus.
Inmate Search
If you click on the Inmate Search, you will be brought to a page where you are able to login by entering your email address and password and then hit the Login button. On that page, you are also able to search an inmate by choosing a state and entering the inmate ID and then hitting the Find button.
Prison Search
If you access the Prison Search page, you will be brought to a page where you can check the availability and pricing of JPay services in certain prisons or facilities.
Help
If you click on the Help menu, a pop-up window will appear and on that window, there are a lot of questions and answers and also guides about JPay services that can help users.
System Status
If you click on this menu, you will be taken to a page where it informs you whether the system is online or not. When I tried to access it, it says, “All Systems Online” with a green circle on the left of this sentence.
If you click on the Twitter icon, you will be brought to the JPay Twitter account and if you click on the Facebook icon, you will be brought to the JPay Facebook account. How about the Login button? If you click on that, you will be taken to a page where you can enter your email address and password for logging in.
