BalanceInquiry Method

Retrieves the current balances of Food Stamp and Cash Benefit accounts on an EBT card.

Syntax

[VB.NET]
Public Sub BalanceInquiry()

[C#]
public void BalanceInquiry();

Remarks

A BalanceInquiry transaction requests that Global Payments return the amount of funds remaining on the customer's EBT Card. No charge is made to the customer's card. The balance results from a balance inquiry on a Food Stamps card will be returned in FoodStampBalance, and the balance results from an inquiry on a Cash Benefits card will be returned in CashBenefitsBalance. For a card that accesses both Food Stamp and Cash Benefit accounts, both balances may be returned.
