Use Your SNAP Benefits to Buy Groceries Online

SNAP participants can purchase groceries online for delivery or pick-up.

This program is currently available through select retailers across Illinois (last updated July 2022). New grocers are joining on a rolling basis. View the most updated list of participating grocers.

Select a store name to learn more about how to shop online with your SNAP benefits.

There are some limits depending on your location. For more information, visit the store’s website.

Useful Tips for Using SNAP Benefits to Shop Online

• SNAP benefits may only be used to purchase food items.
• SNAP benefits cannot be used to pay for delivery fees, driver tips or bag fees. Meet minimum order amounts to qualify for free shipping or pay for shipping using another form of payment.
• If you already have an account with one of the stores, be sure to update the form of payment to your Link EBT card.
• Need help with your SNAP benefits? In Cook County, contact the Greater Chicago Food Depository benefits team. Statewide contact the Illinois Department of Human Services at 800-843-6154.
