Electronic Benefits
Transfer (EBT)
 |
What It
Is and How It Works |
 |
Grocery shopping
is one of the most widely performed activities
around the world. If you are food merchant, you
probably know that not everyone pays for their
food with cash or credit cards, but many use food
stamps as well. Now that paper is becoming a less
and less common form of the food stamp, many
purchases are made with the use of a single card
called Electronic Benefits Transfer card.
The EBT card
works much like a credit card. You can even use
the same terminal through which you scan your
credit cards, but a specific program is required
for this kind of transaction to work efficiently.
Check with your Merchant Account Provider for
more information.
