Have you heard about the best kept secret in Corrections?

We’ve got a T.I.P. that will Improve Your Experience!

Digital Solutions / Inmate Telephone, Inc. is proud to introduce our Technology Incentive Program!

TIP Certified

What is the Technology Incentive Program (T.I.P.)?

T.I.P. is a new program where prequalified facilities can obtain technology solutions as part of their inmate phone contract. The Technology Incentive Program has been introduced throughout the United States and numerous facilities have benefited from receiving various technology incentives at no additional cost. If your county needs new technology systems but doesn’t have money in the budget to pay for it, then a T.I.P. might be just what you need!

These technology incentives are included as part of some inmate phone contracts at

NO ADDITIONAL COST to the facility.

I know what you’re thinking: “There is no such thing as a free lunch”; “What’s the catch?”; “There is no way that this is possible”.

With T.I.P., however, there really are no strings attached. Inmate phone contracts tend to work this way:

 

  • Facilities are offered a commission in exchange for their inmate phone business.
  • The commission that the inmate phone vendor retains is worth a certain amount of revenue depending on the amount of expenses related to that account.
  • Each percentage point of the commission structure represents a different amount of revenue per account.
  • The inmate phone vendor can determine how much a particular technology incentive would cost and then remove the appropriate amount of percentage points from the potential offered commission rate.

So why aren’t all inmate phone vendors offering me this program?

The problem is that most phone vendors have to purchase additional technology and then do a dollar-for-dollar reduction in your commissions. Unfortunately, this situation happens all too often and you are really not getting anything 'free'. You are essentially getting a loan and paying it back!

T.I.P. is different!

The Technology Incentive Program is different. Because we manufacture the majority of items that we offer as value added solutions, we do not have to reduce your commission for every dollar we offer you in incentives. Often times, your commissions are NOT reduced or only reduced by a fraction of the market value of our products. Often times, we can match your current commission rate while providing many more useful products for your facility.

By utilizing T.I.P., many of our facilities throughout the country have been able to afford advanced technology without having to budget for it and without spending any money. The facility and Digital Solutions / Inmate Telephone, Inc. equally benefit. The facility receives more than just an inmate phone system and DSI / ITI is awarded a new contract. The facility also gains operational efficiencies from having fully integrated systems from one vendor leading to an improved overall customer experience.
