SNAP recipients in Texas can buy food online. This will make it easier to get food by having the option to pick it up or get it delivered. For questions about how to use your SNAP benefits and Lone Star Card for online purchases, see the frequently asked questions below:

Can I use my SNAP benefits to buy groceries online at any store that offers online shopping?

No. You can find approved online retailers in Texas here.

Are there restrictions on the type of food I can purchase online?

Cardholders may use their SNAP benefits to purchase any approved food items.

When ordering food or groceries online, will I have the option to pick it up or have it delivered?

Yes, you will have options to pick up in store or to have it delivered as provided by the retailer. Follow the retailer’s online system instructions for selecting an option when placing your order.

Can I use my SNAP funds to pay for processing, shipping or delivery fees?

Online retailers are not required to waive fees of any type, such as delivery, shipping, service or convenience fees. Any fees, if applicable, cannot be paid with SNAP benefits. The cardholder will be responsible for payment of any applicable fees using an alternate method of payment.

Will I be able to purchase ready-made food or hot foods?

No, ready-made food and hot foods are not eligible to be purchased with SNAP benefits.

Can I make a single online order that includes both SNAP-approved food items and non-approved household items like trash bags, as is the case when I check out in the store using my SNAP card and another form of payment?

Yes, you can split the purchases between your Lone Star Card and another form of payment. The online retailer systems are required to allow only SNAP-eligible items to be charged to your Lone Star Card. The cardholder must follow instructions on the retailer’s online system to pay for non-food items with other payment methods.

If I don’t have enough money on my SNAP card to cover the purchase, can I use another debit or credit card to pay the difference?

The contact information should be provided on the retailer’s website. If you disagree with the resolution provided by the online retailer or if your card was used without your permission, call the Lone Star Card Help Desk at 800-777-7328 to file a dispute.
