Meijer expands SNAP benefits acceptance, allowing grocery payments via EBT cards in their app.

Midwest retailer Meijer has expanded SNAP benefits acceptance, enabling customers to pay for groceries like fresh produce and milk through the Meijer app, using Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) cards. This initiative aligns with Meijer's commitment to increasing access to healthy food and is timely, as families receive summer EBT benefits for eligible school-aged children. Meijer offers additional ways for SNAP participants to save, such as produce discounts and access to the Flashfood app, which provides surplus close-dated food at a deep discount.
