The market may also wish to accept debit
and/or credit cards to increase sales.
In most cases, the market sponsor will
be responsible for purchasing or leasing
its own POS device and for all monthly
fees and transaction fees for both
debit/credit and EBT purchases when
using a commercial device. Please
check with your State EBT office for
specific information.
If the market accepts commercial
debit/credit cards, the scrip given to
SNAP customers must be distinct from
non-SNAP debit/credit scrip, so that no
cash is given for this scrip and so that
only eligible food products are
purchased with SNAP benefits.
