Policy Memo
All retailers may continue to offer online shopping to SNAP recipients that require the payment transaction to be completed once the participant arrives at the store for grocery pick-up. Only the participating stores Aldi, Amazon and Walmart allow an online SNAP Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT) payment transaction.
The Illinois Link Program brochure is available in English, Spanish, Arabic, Mandarin, Polish and Urdu. All versions are currently under revision to include the information about the SNAP Online Purchasing Pilot.
