# Tender a sale using an EBT card

This topic describes how cashiers and salespeople can use an EBT card to pay for part or all of a transaction.

1. Enter all of the items in the transaction.

{% hint style="info" %}
You can ring up SNAP-eligible and non-SNAP items in the same transaction. You do not need to ring up SNAP-eligible items separately from non-SNAP items.
{% endhint %}

2. Tap **Transaction** | **Tender Sale**. You can also press **F12** or **Enter**.
3. On the **Tender** screen, enter the amount the customer wants to pay using their SNAP benefits next to the **EBT tender type**.

{% hint style="info" %}
The name of the EBT tender type (e.g., EBT Card) is configurable and may be different in your store. Ensure that you are enter an amount next to the EBT tender type that is equal to or lower than the SNAP-eligible item subtotal, which is identified at the top of the Tender screen. If the amount entered next to the EBT tender type exceeds the SNAP-eligible item subtotal, the error message "You can't enter food stamp tender that is over limit of food stamps item amount" displays.
{% endhint %}

4. (Optional) If there is a balance remaining for the transaction, do one of the following:

* Enter the balance next to another tender type.
* Split the balance between two or more other tender types.

5. Tap **OK**.
6. (Optional) Print or email the customer's receipt.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.rmhpos.com/readme-1/work-with-snap-and-ebt/tender-a-sale-using-an-ebt-card.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
