Hy-Vee customers using Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)/Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) benefits can now pay for online grocery delivery at all its store locations that offer the service.

Hy-Vee began accepting SNAP/EBT payment for pickup orders in 2020. To streamline the payment process, Hy-Vee says it has now introduced a new digital experience that allows customers to pay online using SNAP/EBT for both pickup and delivery orders. The new digital experience also features badges to help customers easily identify SNAP-eligible grocery products when shopping online, according to the company.

“By offering SNAP/EBT payment for delivery orders, Hy-Vee can now reach more customers and increase grocery access throughout the communities we serve,” says Dan Gubbins, vice president of e-commerce for Hy-Vee. “With additional digital features, the online experience makes it even easier for our SNAP/EBT customers to shop for groceries.”

More information about Hy-Vee’s SNAP/EBT services is available through the company’s website.
