For agencies

Replace commissions with reentry outcomes

Commission revenue is shrinking and under scrutiny. CRP gives your agency a defensible alternative: value returned to the people in your custody, a published audit, and numbers your board and funders can report.

The economics for a 1,000-bed facility

Estimates based on about $1.8 million a year in commissary and media spend. Every facility is different; a shadow pilot produces your real figures.

Rebate rateAnnual costPer person / year3-year stay
3%$54,000$54~$162
5%$90,000$90~$270
10%$180,000$180~$540

Waiving a typical commissary and media commission frees roughly $170,000 to $396,000 a year, which fully funds a 5–10% rebate at no cost to your vendor or your budget.

What your agency gets

Reportable outcomes

Dollars placed into release savings, per person and in total, ready for board reports and grant applications.

A published audit

A pass-through report showing spend in, value returned, rules applied and zero commissions.

Policy alignment

A program that fits where states are going: free calls, markup caps and commission bans.

No rebid required

CRP runs as a white-label layer on your current vendor’s data feed.

How a pilot works

  1. Step 1

    Shadow pilot

    We ingest your facility’s spend data and calculate what each rate would return. No money moves.

  2. Step 2

    Rules set-up

    With your counsel, we configure destinations for your state: store credit, release savings, or a welfare-fund split.

  3. Step 3

    Live program

    Value is credited through a licensed partner. Monthly audits are published.
