GK Software unveils eWIC certification for modern payments process

This will help retailers provide convenient and secure online eWIC payment processes. After 1 October 2020, The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) will require retailers to provide electronic access to benefits. The program is dubbed eWIC and it served nearly seven million participants per month in 2018. Moreover, the electronic mandate is designed to modernise and remove friction from the checkout process and eliminate paper certificates. As the program transitions to electronic payments, vendors are able to facilitate the process, driving efficiency for both retailers and users.
