How to shop the Virtual Market using SNAP/HIP/EBT
There are two options to shop online using your SNAP/EBT/HIP benefits.

- HIP benefits (learn more about the Healthy Incentive Program — earn extra SNAP money each month!) will be applied upon purchase. SNAP can only be applied to SNAP eligible items. All other non-eligible items can be charged with a credit card or paid with cash upon pickup. For first time customers, we will call you a day before to confirm your order and answer any questions you may have.
