SNAP recipients are able to purchase food online from participating retailers in Connecticut. SNAP enrollees may use their electronic benefit transfer (EBT) card to purchase eligible food items online for delivery or curbside pickup.
For more details on the program, and to see the retailers participating - visit the DSS website here and scroll down to the bottom of the page:: https://portal.ct.gov/DSS/SNAP/Supplemental-Nutrition-Assistance-Program---SNAP
Please note: Only SNAP benefits on EBT cards can be used for online purchases. At this time, cash assistance benefits on EBT cards cannot be used for any part of online shopping, including shipping, delivery or service fees. Customers will need a secondary form of payment for non-food items, such as taxes, tips and fees, per federal SNAP guidelines.
While federal rules do not allow any SNAP benefits to be used for shipping, delivery or service fees, some food retailers may choose to waive fees, if applicable. Online shopping customers using SNAP benefits must use another means of payment for any fees and/or any non-SNAP-eligible items they wish to purchase.
