paragraph_text: The amount of SNAP benefits received by a household depends on the household's size, income, and expenses. For most of its history, the program used paper - denominated ``stamps ''or coupons -- worth US $1 (brown), $5 (blue), and $10 (green) -- bound into booklets of various denominations, to be torn out individually and used in single - use exchange. Because of their 1: 1 value ratio with actual currency, the coupons were printed by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Their rectangular shape resembled a U.S. dollar bill (although about one - half the size), including intaglio printing on high - quality paper with watermarks. In the late 1990s, the Food Stamp Program was revamped, with some states phasing out actual stamps in favor of a specialized debit card system known as Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT), provided by private contractors. EBT has been implemented in all states since June 2004. Each month, SNAP food stamp benefits are directly deposited into the household's EBT card account. Households may use EBT to pay for food at supermarkets, convenience stores, and other food retailers, including certain farmers' markets.
