Introduction

Forage JS is a front-end JavaScript library for processing EBT payments. You can use the library to add the following EBT checkout operations to your website or app:

  • Store tokenized EBT card numbers for future use
  • Check the balance of an EBT account*
  • Capture an EBT payment

EBT Elements, secure Forage-hosted entities that accept and submit customer input, enable these transactions.

*Skip the balance inquiry method if your site offers guest checkout. FNS prohibits balance inquiries on sites that offer a guest checkout flow.
