«As we work to change
habits and promote healthier food options, we must also do everything we can to create the opportunity of affordable choices,» said Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. «Allowing consumers to use their SNAP / EBT card as one might use their own credit or debit card to
purchase groceries will lead to lower prices and greater options for those living in food deserts or facing food insecurity, and I urge the federal government to update their regulations to account for
ongoing advances in technology.»
The $ 95
ongoing annual fee is a bit pricey but you can earn that back, based on your spending
habits, if you're using the card to
purchase airline tickets, book hotel stays or dining at restaurants regularly.
