DoorDash is rolling out SNAP and EBT payment support at nearly 2,700 Kroger stores nationwide, giving millions of recipients new access to online grocery delivery.
DoorDash announced it has enabled SNAP and EBT payment capabilities across nearly 2,700 Kroger-owned stores, allowing millions of Americans who receive food assistance benefits to order groceries online for on-demand delivery.
The expansion covers Kroger’s broad network of regional supermarket banners, including Fred Meyer, Ralphs and Harris Teeter, among others. Shoppers can use their benefits to purchase eligible items, which include produce, meat, dairy, frozen foods and pantry staples, through the DoorDash Marketplace.
“Access to affordable food is fundamental,” said Mike Goldblatt, vice president of Enterprise Partnerships at DoorDash. “This collaboration with Kroger marks an important step forward for SNAP access nationwide. Together, we’re helping millions of consumers shop more conveniently for the groceries their households rely on every day.”
The platform says more than 4.5 million consumers have already added a SNAP card to their DoorDash accounts, and the network now includes more than 57,000 SNAP/EBT-accepting stores nationwide.
DoorDash says the Kroger addition is particularly meaningful for shoppers in underserved areas. The company’s own research found that SNAP users on the platform are twice as likely to live in food deserts as non-SNAP users.
To mark the launch, DoorDash is offering $0 delivery fees on a customer’s first order from any Kroger family banner when paying with an EBT card, for a limited time.
Shoppers can add a SNAP card through the DoorDash app under Account > Payment > Program Cards, or at checkout. Once a card is added, SNAP-eligible items can be purchased from any participating Kroger banner, with the platform automatically calculating the maximum eligible SNAP subtotal at checkout.
