“E” in eWIC stands for “electronic”. Prior to electronic payment technology, WIC transactions were carried out by checking benefits on paper checks. Now, eWIC redemptions are carried out electronically with a government-issued benefits card swiped on a credit card reader terminal at the checkout counter. NRS eWIC software integrates within the NRS POS to automatically do the eligibility checking for benefits redemption, saving the cashier time and shortening lines, with effortless eWIC transactions.
