Aldi has earned a reputation as a place that customers can go to for quick grocery shopping. With an excellent product range and a focus on healthy food, they have many customers who are happy to shop at Aldi. Aldi offers incredible value for money with its fantastic prices, and low-income people are curious about whether they can shop at Aldi with their EBT cards.
Yes, you can use your EBT card at all Aldi stores to pay for grocery items. A great advantage of using EBT cards at Aldi is that you can now use them to shop online. The store is partnered with Instacart and you can get your groceries delivered to your home in 29 states and Washington D.C.
Please note that the Instacart services and delivery charges will be charged separately and are not covered by the EBT benefits.
If you are shopping at an Aldi store, using your EBT card is as easy as using any other debit or credit card.
All that you need to do is just enter your PIN at checkout and pay. Once the cashier finds out that you are using your SNAP benefits, they will write down the amount that you are eligible to spend. If all your items are eligible for EBT, the total will be zero as the amount that you spend will be charged to your EBT card.
If you cannot pay for everything you need to buy using SNAP benefits, you will have to pay the remainder with an alternative payment method.
Aldi has recently partnered with Instacart to make grocery shopping even simpler. You can also get your groceries delivered to your home the same day using an EBT card.
