DoorDash announced it is launching Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) payment assistance for approximately 2,700 Kroger stores, giving millions of recipients across the United States access to online grocery delivery.
According to DoorDash, the expansion includes grocery store brands Mariano’s, Fred Meyer, Ralphs, Harris Teeter and others under the grocery giant’s banner. SNAP customers can use benefits to purchase eligible items, such as meat, produce, dairy, frozen foods and other essentials, on the DoorDash Marketplace.
“Access to affordable food is fundamental,” Mike Goldblatt, vice president of enterprise partnerships at DoorDash, said in the news release. “This collaboration with Kroger is an important step forward for SNAP access nationwide.”
According to the company, by the fourth quarter of 2025, more than 57,000 stores accept SNAP and EBT payments on the platform, and 4.5 million users have added their SNAP cards to their accounts.
A 2025 report from DoorDash showed that SNAP users on the platform were twice as likely to live in a food desert as non-SNAP users.
DoorDash said in the release that it is offering a $0 delivery fee on a user’s first purchase using EBT payments at participating Kroger stores through June 15.
Data from the US Department of Agriculture showed that, on average, more than 42.1 million people in the United States used SNAP benefits monthly in fiscal year 2025.
