Frequently Asked Questions

Eligibility

I don’t have food stamps. How do I apply?

Since Providers isn’t part of the government, we can’t help you apply through our app. Click “EBT in your state” in the menu above to learn more about applying in your state.

Who can use the app?

Anyone who is currently receiving benefits (like SNAP/food stamps, TANF/welfare, or SSI) on an EBT card can use the app. All you need is an Android device or iPhone/iPad and you can download the app for free. It’s that easy!

General

Does Providers work in my state?

Yes! Providers is available in all U.S. states and territories.

I didn’t get my benefits. What should I do?

Since Providers isn’t part of the government, you need to contact your caseworker or local SNAP office for help. This might have happened if you missed your recertification, or if there is a holiday or other special event that changes the EBT distribution schedule.

Help! I need food right now.
