Check eligibility

How much money do I get?

SNAP benefits are based on:

household size
income
specific circumstances

The benefits are based on a federal formula that determines how much it costs to buy food to make nutritious, low-cost meals for your household.

The benefits change yearly.

What can I buy?

With food stamps or SNAP benefits, individuals can buy healthy foods like:

titun, tutunini, tabi akolo eso ati ẹfọ
wara
eran
eyin
Ewebe ati awọn irugbin ororoo ewe lati dagba ounjẹ tirẹ

Groceries can be purchased at the grocery store, online, or the farmer's market.

Shopping Online

You can use SNAP benefits to shop for fresh produce and groceries online at retailers and online marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart, and ShopRite. Participating stores include Amazon, ShopRite, and Walmart.

The SNAP benefits will cover eligible food only, and not delivery or other fees.

On Amazon, the food will have a label "SNAP EBT eligible." However, you will only see this after you add your SNAP EBT card to your Amazon account.

The Department of Human Services, which oversees SNAP benefits in Maryland, explains how to use your SNAP benefits with online grocery stores.
