When the expansion is complete, 7-Eleven, Aldi, Albertsons, and Meijer will all accept SNAP and EBT. According to DoorDash's v.p. of new verticals, "the rise of on-demand food delivery services has had an enormous effect on food access."

Changes aren't limited to consumers. Dashers now have two income streams. These food couriers can choose to earn by time or offer, which is identical to present operating methods but with more efficient recommended routes.

This is especially true for the elderly, people who live in food deserts, and people who have physical limitations that prevent them from getting around. To paraphrase the Vice President, "enabling SNAP/EBT payments can make a profound impact on decreasing food insecurity."

Due to DoorDash's ongoing app and website updates, this is currently only available in select locations and stores.
