Hi,
We want to process food stamps with the same credit card processor. When I go to Tender Types and I select Food Stamps, the 'Perform verification via EDC' check box is grey and I cannot activate it.
Does anyone is actually processing Food Stamps integrated in RMS?
Thanks,
Sacha
There are more problems than that you will run into.
If the state your business is in combines the Foodstamp portion and the cash portion on one card you are going to have a massive headache.
RMS tedner sees the foodstamp tender as the old paper style not the new debit style. so if your using something like PCCharge or the direct method you have to configure the tender type as other but the prompts on the debit device may not work depending on what you are using.
TPI setup EBT to work in there software but it configures itself in the hooks as a foodstamp tender and all items you sell have to be configured as able to accept food stamps even traditional non food stamp type items for the cash side of the EBT card.
All the clients I work with that want to be able to do this I tell them to get the terminal from the state and use it and configure the tender as other. Theres a couple advantages to this in my state they dont charge any service fees, swipe fees etc and they also provide the seperate terminal for free I belive depending on the size of the store depends on how many they will provide.
Sorry for the bad news on this
