🚨 New warning for EBT cardholders
A third-party app called “Ebt edge – food stamps” is showing up in the Apple App Store. It charges users $4.99/week or $60 for lifetime access — but this is not the official app. The state of California will never charge EBT cardholders to use the official EBT app.
Only use the official app: FIS ebtEDGE — it’s free and supported by the state of California.
To stay safe:
- Delete any unofficial EBT apps.
- Download the official app: FIS ebtEDGE
- Never pay to access your EBT benefits.
Your benefits and personal info are too important to risk. Please share this with others who use EBT.
