About EBTDates

What we do

EBTDates sends a short, free email reminder before your state's monthly SNAP deposit window — so you always know when your food stamp benefits will load onto your EBT card. Every state runs its own schedule (by case number, SSN, last name, or birth data), which makes deposit dates confusing; our goal is that yours never catches you by surprise.

Where our data comes from

Every date we publish and every reminder we send is based on the official USDA Food and Nutrition Service monthly issuance schedule for all states and territories, cross-checked with each state agency's own published calendar. Benefit amounts come from the official USDA SNAP cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) tables.

What we are not

EBTDates is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the USDA, any state SNAP agency, or any government body. We never ask for your Social Security number, case number, card number, or any personal information beyond an email address. For anything related to your specific benefits, contact your state SNAP office or call the EBT customer service number on the back of your card.

How we sustain the service

The service is completely free: no credit card, no paid tier, no selling of your data. You can unsubscribe at any time and we delete your address.

More from the same team

We also run Social Security Tracker, a free guide to Social Security, SSDI, and SSI payment dates. If you or someone in your household receives those benefits too, it works the same way: official schedules, plain answers, and free reminders.
