YOU can help Stop SNAP Fraud, Waste and Abuse

SNAP fraud is the intentional misuse of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits by recipients, retailers, or scammers and it is illegal. Visit DHS's Stop SNAP Fraud, Waste, and Abuse webpage for examples and consequences of SNAP fraud, how to protect your benefits from fraud, and how to report fraud, waste and abuse.

The ConnectEBT website provides SNAP customers with a fast, secure, and easy way to monitor their EBT available balance, deposits, transaction activity, and select or change a PIN. Now, customers have a new function: the ability to lock and unlock their EBT cards, as well as an app (the ConnectEBT app they can use in addition to the existing website.)

Card lock/unlock feature available!

EBT card users can now lock and unlock their EBT cards as an added layer of security to protect their SNAP benefits. SNAP clients can lock their EBT cards when not in use and unlock the card when they are ready to shop or pay for their purchases. The lock feature also allows SNAP customers to choose where their cards are locked.

New EBT card security options

Beginning Oct. 22, 2026, customers have three options to choose from when visiting the card lock/unlock feature in the ConnectEBT app or website:

Unlock My Card: Allows purchases in all states and online.
Block High-Risk Transactions: Blocks all online purchases and purchases outside of Georgia and its bordering states – Alabama, Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Physical purchases in Georgia and these bordering states are allowed.
Lock Everywhere (Recommended): Blocks all purchases, including those in Georgia and bordering states, as well as all online transactions.

Georgia DHS encourages all SNAP customers to select the most secure option, “Lock Everywhere,” when they are not using their cards. Before shopping, select “Unlock My Card” or “Block High-Risk Transactions” depending on where you plan to shop. Lock your card again when you’re done shopping.
