What is an EBT card?
EBT (Electronic Benefit Transfer) cards are used to administer financial assistance and food stamps in New York City and New York State. This card, similar to a debit card, allows the user to access his/her food stamp account and or other benefits. Customers with food stamps can now swipe their EBT cards to pay for produce, meat, dairy and baked goods at twenty-four Greenmarket locations.
