Inmate Compensation Program 
Inmate Compensation Program
Prisoners earn REAL money by selling our merchandise in jail.
                                                                  These are the FACTS: 

  • Inmates become property of the State upon their arrest.
  • All of an inmate's property also belongs to the State for the duration of their incarceration. (This also includes "intellectual property" such as inventions, books, artwork, etc. created by the inmate during their prison time.)
  • Any income generated by an inmate during their incarceration belongs to the State. (Once again, this also includes any earnings made from published books, music deals, inventions, etc. created by the inmate during their incarceration).
  • The State prisons make millions of dollars per year on contract bids for services like license plate manufacturing, product assembly, and landscaping services -- then recruit inmates to perform these high-salary jobs and pay them as little as 30 cents per day. 
  • Prisons barely provide the most basic necessities, which forces inmates to either: 1)  Become a financial burden on their family; or 2) Accept a prison job, then use the prison salary they earn to purchase items from the prison commissary. 

                                The moral of the story is: JAIL IS DESIGNED TO KEEP YOU BROKE!
           More FACTS:

      Books are the ONLY product that inmates are allowed to purchase outside of the prison walls.
      Even simple items such as pens & paper, soap, stamps & envelopes, and food must be purchased from the prison commissary to insure that the institution keeps every penny of the inmate's revenue. Books & magazine subscriptions are the only items that inmates can purchase from independent retailers. 

      Everyone in jail reads... or at least likes photos.
      Books & magazines allow an inmate's mind to soar free - even when their bodies are in bondage. And considering that activities are limited while a person is in prison, books & magazines are a major source of recreation. Even inmates who don't enjoy reading, still enjoy looking at the photos in magazines.







       


                                                                             Let's Talk MONEY

      The United States has 3,100 county jails, in addition to 2,400 penitentiaries, which combine to house almost  14 million people. That's a lot of potential customers! 
      And as Kru Klub members, they can recruit other inmates as members and create a network within the prison system.

      They receive up to 30% commission on any sale -- which includes magazine subscriptions -- in addition to monthly bonuses for recruiting other inmates as members. 

      And the best part? Their paychecks are deposited directly into their J-Pay accounts as a commission payment to prevent the institutions from garnishing their earnings.
