West Virginia Snap EBT

Welcome to SNAP EBT information page for the state of West Virginia.

SNAP gives financial assistance to low-income families, the elderly, and people with disabilities so they may purchase food.

Although anyone can apply for SNAP benefits, the program is intended to help single parents, older people, people with disabilities, and others receiving public assistance who need food assistance the most.

Families who qualify will be given an EBT card, which functions like a debit card used to buy food at supermarkets and grocery stores. Food for people and plants and seeds to grow food are acceptable purchases.
