Our partner DoorDash recently surveyed thousands of SNAP shoppers, publishing key findings on how online grocery is helping widen food access in the United States. While there are a number of eye-opening stats in the report, there are a couple that stood out most to us here at the Forage team: 🍎 78% of SNAP recipients prefer using EBT benefits on delivery vs in-store 🍎 74% say online shopping helps them buy more fruits & vegetables, at a lower overall cost vs shopping in-store 🍎 61% feel self-conscious using their benefits in-store, and 81% say grocery delivery helps with anonymity, providing the dignity of purchasing groceries without facing stigma We’re on a mission to modernize EBT payments, and partners like DoorDash exemplify the outsized role innovation can have on social impact. And it’s why we’re beyond proud to partner with DoorDash to expand SNAP acceptance for the 1.8 million (and counting!) DoorDash shoppers who have already added their EBT cards in-platform. We can’t wait to see what next year’s numbers look like. #groceryretail #payments #doordash #socialimpact #ebt

We are honored to announce our partnership with Toast to launch EBT SNAP as a payment method! We are on a mission to feed low-income families, and together we’re enabling local businesses, no matter how big or small, to serve communities in need throughout America. Alongside Toast, we are especially humbled to serve independent retailers like Halal Madina Market. Small businesses are the backbone of our communities, and enabling EBT SNAP for them grows local economies and feeds families in need. “EBT customers are our VIP customers, they represent almost 15-20% of our business. It’s critical for us to be able to support and benefit them, with the Toast and Forage integration, now we can,” says Musa Siddeeq, General Manager and Owner of Halal Madina Market. “Enabling Forage on our Toast POS was seamless - almost like they are part of Toast - and both we and our customers have been pleased with being able to take EBT payments simply and discreetly.” #groceryretail #payments #paymentsolutions
