It's June. Planning and prep work should have been done by now to have your Farmers' Market up and running in a few weeks. Did you think about how you would accept SNAP/EBT cards? Credit and debit cards? Tokens, Scripts, Wireless processing?
What kind of hoops have you had to jump through? Are you frustrated yet? Not to add pressure but is time running out for this season?
As I write this, it is hard to believe that not every Market Manager knows about a company that is offering FREE*, rental or purchase wireless SNAP/EBT, credit and debit card processing equipment with their merchant services program for Farmers' Markets across the U.S..
In 2004 we pioneered a special program with the State of Iowa that lead to many changes to help make the diverse glove fit the varied needs to the farmers' market program.
Now after (5) five years, we are adding another value added service to meet the needs of our clients. If a farmer or vendor participating in our Farmers' Market Program, regardless if they are getting a FREE* wireless machine, renting one or purchasing one, we will provide assistance in the completion of their FNS application and follow through with the farmers/vendor for activation of their approved EBT FNS Certificate from the USDA. that's not an easy task, but we feel it is a much needed added service to make getting your farmers' market optional in accepting ALL forms of non-cash payment as soon as possible.
Why wait until another season has passed. Don't you have questions about how to get your market up and running by this season? it's not too late to take advantage of the FREE*, rental or purchase Farmers' Market Wireless EBT, credit, debit card processing system this season.
See if you or your organization qualifies by calling 1-800-313-5198 (Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM EST).
