The USDA has proposed adding chip and tap-to-pay technology to EBT cards used for SNAP benefits. The National Grocers Association backed the move, saying the payment technologies, already available in nearly a dozen states, can help reduce SNAP fraud. Retailers and benefit recipients are watching how the modernization would be rolled out nationwide.

Why now: The proposal could affect millions of SNAP recipients and grocers by modernizing benefit card security and curbing fraud.
