Rite Aid’s expanded partnership with the
leading online grocery technology platform allows greater access to
groceries and pantry essentials for eligible customers
Rite Aid (OTC: RADCQ) today announced its expanded partnership
with Instacart (NASDAQ: CART), the leading grocery technology
company in North America, allowing use of an Electronic Benefits
Transfer (EBT) card for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP) as an online payment option for eligible items on
its Instacart digital storefront. Available from over 1,400 Rite
Aid and Bartell Drugs locations nationwide, this new online payment
option provides seamless access to essential items Rite Aid
customers need to enhance their well-being, while offering
additional convenience to communities with SNAP benefits through
same-day delivery.
“Our stores are a trusted retail destination for a wide
selection of health and wellness products that meet our shoppers’
needs and fit within their budgets,” said Jeanniey Walden, Senior
Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer at Rite Aid. “By
offering this new payment option through Instacart, we are
continuing our efforts to provide a flexible and convenient
shopping experience for all customers. Broadening access to pantry
staples and groceries connects our customers to the critical items
they need, helping more families achieve whole health.”
“Instacart is committed to offering SNAP beneficiaries the best
selection and choice through our marketplace. Today, we reach 96%
of SNAP households in all 50 states and Washington D.C., providing
online SNAP acceptance and access to essential items, with
affordable and convenient delivery,” said Sarah Mastrorocco, Vice
President and General Manager of Health at Instacart. “As we expand
with trusted retailers like Rite Aid, we’re enhancing our online
selection to ensure everyday essentials are easily accessible to
everyone in our communities.”
Where available, SNAP participants can shop eligible products
through the Rite Aid and Bartell Drugs digital storefront on
Instacart and choose convenient delivery options tailored to suit
their lifestyle. An EBT SNAP card can be used in the payment method
section of the app, and at checkout, customers can select how much
of their SNAP benefit they would like to apply to their order. EBT
SNAP cards can also be used in-store at select Rite Aid and Bartell
Drugs locations.
