If you receive your card in the mail, call Customer Service to select a PIN over the phone. **** 6

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR PIN Protect your PIN Keep your PIN secret. Memorize it! DO NOT write your PIN on your card or card envelope. (If you need to write down your PIN, keep that paper in a different place than your card.) DO NOT let anyone (not even the store clerk) see your PIN when you enter it at the machine. DO NOT let anyone else use your card and PIN. Call Customer Service if that happens. They will tell you how to pick a new PIN. Your benefits will not be replaced if someone else uses them. If you forget your PIN or to get a new PIN: Go to your DCF SRS office. or Call Customer Service to select a new PIN by phone. You have 3 tries each day to enter your correct PIN. After 3 incorrect tries you cannot use your card until 12:01 AM the next day or until you select a new PIN. When you select a PIN: Select 4 numbers that you can remember but that other people cannot easily guess. 7

HOW TO USE A POS MACHINE (TO PURCHASE FOOD) Know your balance! Check your last receipt or call Customer Service before shopping. ❶ First, show your card to the clerk. Next, you or the clerk swipes your card through the point of sale or POS machine. You or the clerk then enters the amount of your purchase. The clerk should not leave the area with your card. ❷ Check the amount that shows in the POS window. ❸ If the amount is correct, enter your PIN. Press ENTER. ❹ Take your card, groceries, and receipt. The steps you follow may be different for each type of POS machine you use. Ask the clerk if you need help. You will not receive change when you purchase food. You can use POS machines to purchase food as many times as you want each month until all your food benefits are used. 8

HOW TO USE A POS MACHINE (TO WITHDRAW CASH) ❶ Ask the clerk if you can withdraw cash benefits at this store. If you can, you or the clerk swipes your card through the POS machine. Tell the clerk the amount of cash you want to receive. ❷ Check the amount that shows in the POS window. ❸ If the amount is correct, enter your PIN. Press ENTER. ❹ Take your card, cash, and receipt. The steps you follow may be different for each type of POS machine you use. Ask the clerk if you need help. Cash withdrawals are not allowed from food benefits. Non-food items are taken from your cash benefits account or you can pay cash. Cash withdrawals cannot be done in the store if your card cannot be read by the POS machine. 9

IF THE POS MACHINE IS NOT WORKING If the POS machine in the store is not working when you make a purchase with your food benefits, the clerk will ask you to sign a form for the amount of food you buy. There may be a $50.00 limit on the amount of food that can be purchased if the POS machine is not working. Check the amount. It should be the same amount as the food you purchased. If the amount is correct, sign your name and the date here. The clerk will call Customer Service to check if you have enough benefits in your food account to purchase the food. If you do, the total food amount will be subtracted from your food benefits. This form is also used by food merchants (like farmer's markets) that may not have POS machines. Remember DO NOT tell the clerk your PIN! 10

FOOD BENEFIT ADJUSTMENTS (DUE TO AN EBT SYSTEM ERROR) Your food benefits may be adjusted (up or down) to correct an EBT system error. If the correction will reduce your food benefits, you will receive a notice explaining what happened and the possibility of an adjustment to the current balance or the next month s benefits. You will have the opportunity to appeal the action if you do not agree with it.
