The new cards, now mailed to EBT cardholders across the state, are expected to significantly enhance account security for beneficiaries, including those in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program.<\/p>\n<p>\nAcross the country, states have reported a sharp rise in fraud attempts targeting EBT cards, which traditionally rely on magnetic stripes and are vulnerable to skimming \u2013 where criminals install devices on point-of-sale terminals to steal card information. With chip technology, Alabama cardholders can now insert their cards into the terminals rather than swiping them, adding a critical layer of protection.<\/p>\n<p>\nFollowing a <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdhr.alabama.gov%2Falabama-dhr-launches-chipped-ebt-cards-for-snap-tanf-benefits%2F&amp;esheet=54423845&amp;newsitemid=20260213534291&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=pilot+program&amp;index=3&amp;md5=faa87c265a5fcd994bf60f3aa7b01593\">pilot program<\/a> launched in December, Alabama is the first Conduent-supported state \u2013 and only the second state nationwide \u2013 to introduce EBT cards to all cardholders. Additional states are preparing similar rollouts.<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI am so pleased to finally bring this instrumental change to our EBT cardholders statewide,\u201d said Alabama DHR Commissioner Nancy Buckner. \u201cAfter a successful pilot program, we have shown that these new cards are easy to use and offer much better protection for the benefits. I am pleased that with this chip technology upgrade, our clients can have more confidence that their benefits will be there when they purchase groceries. This is not the end; we will continue to work and develop new and innovative ways to better protect our clients and their benefits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe are honored to help Alabama DHR lead the way in giving their beneficiaries this critically important tool to protect their accounts and funds,\u201d said Anna Sever, President, Government Solutions at Conduent. \u201cTransitioning to chip technology is a proven fraud-prevention strategy. Chip cards are widely used across the country for other types of accounts, and EBT payments deserve the same level of security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nSNAP and TANF recipients in Alabama and several other states can also use Conduent\u2019s ConnectEBT mobile app and cardholder portal, which allow beneficiaries to lock their accounts to block all purchases, providing greater control and helping prevent unauthorized transactions.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition, with Conduent\u2019s support, Alabama DHR recently <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fdhr.alabama.gov%2Fsnap-transactions-for-out-of-state-and-online-automatically-turned-off%2F&amp;esheet=54423845&amp;newsitemid=20260213534291&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=implemented+a+system+enhancement&amp;index=4&amp;md5=b654912573adf763597b9571aeecb3e7\">implemented a system enhancement<\/a> that automatically defaults all EBT cards to block out-of-state and online transactions.
