Portuguese term
Vale refeição vs. vale alimentação
Portuguese to English
Bus/Financial
Insurance
I am translating a summary of benefits. I thought both of these phrases would be "meal voucher." But since they appear as two distinct categories, I have to come up with two different translations. Any ideas?

Meal ticket and grocery voucher
I´m not quite sure whether the term grocery voucher is valid but it explains the difference. The meal ticket is valid at restaurants etc whereas the grocery voucher is for food shopping in supermarkets etc.

: Só para esclarecer: as empresas no Brasil oferecem os dois tipos de vale e isso não tem a ver com o Bolsa Família. Vale refeição é para restaurante e Vale alimentação é para compras de supermercados
