API Overview
Getting started with Benny’s EBT API
Benny’s fully hosted SNAP-Online solution requires minimal API integration. See Quickstart for the bare requirements.
Authentication
Secret keys
Use secret keys only on your server and never expose them on any web or mobile client code. Generate new secret keys in the developer dashboard.
Public keys
Use public keys for client-side authentication and safely bundle them in web or mobile code. Generate new public keys in the developer dashboard.
Standard units
Currency
Benny expects and represents all monetary amounts in cents.
Time
Benny expects and represents all time amounts in UTC per the ISO 8601 format. If a time-zone is not relevant for the time unit, time represents a local date. See individual endpoint documentation for the expected time precision.
