Abstract

Systems and methods provide management of a program of correctional supervision via a stored-value card. Through a stored-value card issued to a criminal offender in a program of correctional supervision, the offender's transactions are compared to a rule set for the program, and it is determined whether an alert condition has occurred as a result of the transaction. Monies owed by the criminal offender may be collected using the card and the stored-value card provides a criminal offender a card for purchases and other transactions usually unavailable to the unbanked.
