Current Secure Intake Options

Butler Franklin uses its own platform as its operational system of record, but customer online intake access to that platform is not yet enabled. Call 513 PAY BAIL for the current approved route. If an optional Captira form is offered below, Captira is an external provider and is not Butler Franklin’s own platform.

What to have ready before starting

If you do not have everything, start with what you know. Missing information can often be checked after the first call or online intake.

Defendant information

Full legal name
Date of birth
City, county, jail, or arresting agency
Booking number, case number, charge, or bond amount if known

Caller information

Your name and best phone number
Relationship to the defendant
Email address
Best time and method to reach you

Payment or collateral questions

Payment-plan questions
Large bond questions
Indemnitor or co-signer information
Collateral questions when applicable

What happens after you submit the form

Intake review starts. We review the information you submit and identify what is known, what may be missing, and what needs to be checked with the jail or court.
Bond status is checked. The court or jail may control the bond amount, posting procedure, holder status, and release conditions. Records can update at different times.
Paperwork and payment questions are explained. If the bond can move forward, we explain the paperwork, payment review, indemnitor responsibilities, and possible collateral questions.

When calling may be faster than starting online

Call 513 PAY BAIL if the person was just arrested, if the person is not showing in an online lookup, if the bond amount is unclear, if there may be another county holder, or if the bond amount is large. Online intake is useful, but a call can help organize urgent information faster.

Online bail bond application FAQ

Can I start online if I do not know the bond amount yet?

Yes. Start with the information you have, or call 513 PAY BAIL. Butler Franklin Bail Bonds LLC can help check current jail, court, and bond information for free before the family decides what to do next.

What information helps start a bail bond application?

Helpful information includes the defendant’s full legal name, date of birth, city or county of arrest, jail or court if known, bond amount if listed, charge information if available, and the caller’s name and phone number.

Does submitting the online form guarantee approval or release?

No. Online intake starts the review. Approval, payment terms, collateral requirements, posting procedure, and release timing depend on the case, court, jail, bond amount, underwriting review, and applicable law.

What if the jail and court information does not match?

That can happen because jail and court systems update at different times. We can help check both sources when possible and explain what still needs to be confirmed.

Should I call instead of using the online form?

Call if the situation is urgent, if the person is not showing online, if the bond amount is unclear, if there may be a holder or warrant, or if you are dealing with a large bond. You can also use the online form to start intake.

Can the online form help with large bail bonds?

Yes. Online intake can help organize defendant, caller, payment, indemnitor, and collateral-review information. For large bonds, calling 513 PAY BAIL can also help the family move faster and avoid missing important details.

Important notice

Submitting an online application does not guarantee approval, payment terms, collateral decisions, bond posting, release timing, or a particular case outcome. Butler Franklin Bail Bonds LLC provides bail bond services and general bail process information, not legal advice. Courts and jails control bond conditions, posting procedure, and final release processing.

Text messaging is optional

Submitting the separate Captira bail application does not by itself enroll you in recurring text messages. To request text updates, use the separate optional PayBail SMS consent form. You may complete the bail application without consenting to texts. Review our Privacy Policy, Terms and Conditions, and SMS Terms and Conditions.
