MyWIChildCare Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) Card

The MyWIChildCare EBT Card is an electronic benefits transfer (EBT) card that acts like a debit card. When a parent is found eligible to receive Wisconsin Shares subsidy benefits and requests a child care authorization, the funds from the authorization are loaded onto the card and are ready to be paid out to the child care provider.
