The Florida Food Stamp Program provides low-income families and individuals in the state with means for a nutritious diet. The stamps can only be used to purchase food and not other household goods. Families use an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card to purchase food. These cards are accepted at retail stores that are authorized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The program is only for individuals who have a bank balance of less than $2,001 and have an annual household income of less than $14,079 for one person, $18,941 for two, $23,803 for three, $28,665 for four or $33,527 for five.
