Independent grocers, c-stores, and other specialty retailers are prime pieces in the puzzle of fighting hunger. These retailers are key community pillars that economically support many in their community, especially people like SNAP recipients.<\/p>\n

When retailers support these customers, especially during the holidays, they can see benefits and increased sales. Holiday cheer can mean profit is near for your business, so be sure to support SNAP customers in these 3 ways this holiday season\u2026<\/p>\n

If you are not already accepting EBT, you could be missing out. For one, becoming a SNAP retailer improves access to healthy, nutritious foods and necessities for SNAP recipients in your community. For two, EBT is another stream of revenue to add to your business. When you become a SNAP retailer you benefit your community by joining the fight against hunger and you benefit your business by adding a new revenue stream.

EBT cash benefits are cash benefits for SNAP recipients that can be used to pay for things like childcare, housing, transportation, and more. These benefits are accessed with an EBT cash benefits card that allows recipients to withdraw cash at checkout or from an ATM. Learn more about EBT cash benefits on goEBT\u2019s EBT cash benefits webpage.<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n If you are already a SNAP retailer, be sure to let members of your community know.
