Electronic Benefits Transfer EBT Card Accounts
If you collect food stamps, food assistance or cash benefits from the federal government or your state government, chances are that you have an EBT account. Electronic Benefits Transfer, EBT, is the system by which most of the food assistance and cash benefits awarded to needy families are processed and transacted. Instead of using paper food stamps to buy items at a grocery, now you will have a plastic debit card that looks and works pretty much like any other debit or credit card. When you buy food or other authorized and qualified products at a store, you would swipe your card through the card reader so the cashier can process your transaction. No one knows that you are using state or federal food stamp assistance or other cash benefits.
Depending upon the state where you live will determine which plastic EBT card you will carry and which assistance program you will be on. When you check your EBT benefits, account history and transaction history you will need to visit the appropriate website so you can login and sign in to your EBT account online. Some states will have their own web portal that manages and processes transactions, or where you will login to check your account balance.
