A scrip system uses a single point-of-sale (POS) device at a central location in a Farmers’ Market to process EBT transactions and the market’s own currency (scrip) that customers use to shop at the market.
A market can be approved to accept SNAP benefits on behalf of all the farmers that sell eligible food items at the market, including individual farmers that are not approved to accept SNAP. To do so, the market must have a scrip system.
NOTE: In addition to SNAP benefits, EBT accounts may contain non-SNAP cash benefits issued via other means, such as Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). Scrip issued in exchange for such cash benefits can be used to purchase non-food items, and is not subject to SNAP rules.
