DoorDash and Dollar General have announced a partnership to bring SNAP/EBT payment options to more than 16,000 Dollar General stores on the DoorDash Marketplace. This move nearly doubles DoorDash’s network of stores that accept SNAP/EBT online payments, expanding access to over 35,000 locations.
Enabled in partnership with Forage, this collaboration allows SNAP recipients to order groceries, including fresh and frozen foods, pantry staples, and snacks, for delivery across 48 states. With 75% of the U.S. population living within five miles of a Dollar General store, the initiative aims to increase accessibility and convenience for SNAP users.
DoorDash reports that 2.4 million consumers have added their SNAP/EBT card to its platform, with a significant portion using the service due to mobility or health challenges that make in-person shopping difficult. To further support food access, DoorDash offers a discounted DashPass plan for SNAP recipients at $4.99 per month for one year, providing benefits such as free delivery on eligible orders.
The partnership reflects both companies' commitment to addressing food insecurity and ensuring that more people can conveniently access affordable, healthy groceries.
