WIC: Vendor Applicants Cash Register System Information

There are two different types of systems you can use for eWIC transactions. These are stand-beside and integrated.

If your store has an electronic cash register (ECR) point-of-sale (POS) system, you most likely use an integrated system. You’ll need to arrange eWIC processing through your cash register provider and a third-party processor.

If you don’t have an ECR POS, you’ll need to use a stand-beside device. You’d also need this device if your system doesn’t support eWIC transactions.
