Fred Meyer and QFC announced Wednesday it will begin accepting EBT payment for all online grocery orders in Washington, Oregon and Idaho, according to a media release.
While Fred Meyer and QFC have been accepting Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for years, customers will now be able to buy groceries through their apps and online.
“Thousands of Fred Meyer and QFC shoppers place digital orders every week,” said Tiffany Sanders, Corporate Affairs Manager for QFC and Fred Meyer. “Now, we are opening our digital grocery shopping experience to more people, with fresh, affordable food conveniently available through Pickup or Delivery. Fred Meyer and QFC believe in being Fresh for Everyone, and this is another important way we are connecting our neighbors to the foods that will help them live healthier, thriving lives.”
Customers that are interested in making digital orders can create an account on the Fred Meyer or QFC app or visit FredMeyer.com or qfc.com and add their EBT account number. Once a customer fills their online shopping cart with SNAP-eligible items, a customer would just select EBT as the payment option.
