Benefits are deposited monthly into SNAP accounts, which are linked to Ohio Direction Cards, the state’s version of the EBT card. Your card can be used anywhere you see the Ohio Direction Card sign.
You may be eligible for SNAP benefits in Ohio if your household’s gross monthly income is at or under 130% of the federal poverty guidelines, which change annually. Your benefits can be used to buy most food products, except food that is hot when sold or food that is sold to be eaten in the store.
You can apply for SNAP benefits online at Benefits.Ohio.gov or submit a Request for Cash, Food and Medical Assistance to your County Department of Job and Family Services. You may also file a SNAP application through your local Ohio Benefit Bank website.
Monthly benefit amounts are based on household size, expenses and sometimes resources.
Benefits are deposited onto Ohio Direction Cards on a regular assigned date between the 2nd and the 20th of every month, based on the last digit of your case number. All cardholders can call the Ohio Direction Card customer service number at 1-866-386-3071 six days before the first of each month to find out when their benefits will become available.
