If you are a retailer who wants to make SNAP Online available to your customers, you must be approved by the USDA Food and Nutrition Service (FNS). The application process differs, depending on whether or not your brick-and-mortar location already accepts SNAP EBT, for example, or whether you have an online eCommerce presence. Learn more about the criteria for retailers who can participate in SNAP Online.
Who SEMTAC Helps

SNAP retailers who own the inventory they sell
