BJ's Wholesale Club to accept food stamps. NATICK, Mass. - BJ's Wholesale Club says it will begin accepting electronic food stamp payments at all of its 180 stores. The Natick, Mass.-based chain said today that effective immediately, members can purchase food with government-issued food stamps through Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) payments.
EBT is used in all states to issue food stamp benefits to recipients. Many states also issue cash benefits such as TANF using EBT. Recipients are issued an EBT Card similar to a bank ATM or debit card to receive and use their food stamp and/or cash benefits. Benefits are automatically deposited onto the card by the State.
