What does EBT stand for? Do you know?

Electronic Benefits Transfer. The old food stamps were a booklet of coupons. The new food stamps are a debit card that gets reloaded with cash each month. They made the change to reduce the stigma of using food stamps. It looks like a credit/debit card so onlookers can't tell who is on food stamps.
