MINNEAPOLIS, MN (January 9, 2020) — Solutran today announced it has been selected as the processing agent for the Maine Department of Health and Human Services Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) Program. The program implementation will begin in mid-January.
Solutran has successfully served the Maine WIC program since 2010 and will continue serving over 18,000 of the state’s WIC participants with its S3™ WIC EBT system.
