Submitting Payment

EBT Tender payment will only charge for EBT items.

Example:
  1. A Check has two items: one item is EBT and is $50, while the other is non-EBT and is $10.
  2. When EBT Tender is pressed, it will only charge $50, with $10 as the Remaining Balance.
  3. Complete the $10 payment for the rest of the Check by selecting a different Tender.


An SPPAX payment must be configured (with the EBT toggle enabled) in Back Office. For more information, see the Back Office Payment Methods Settings article.

  3. On the Check Option screen that appears, select EBT balance.
    1. If no SPPAX device is connected to the POS, an alert with the message 'No pax device is connected to this POS' appears.

  4. Swipe the card on the connected SPPax device.

  5. The EBT balance pop-up appears, showing the Card Number (with all but last 4 numbers hidden) and the Balance. Click Done to close the pop-up.
