Oregon Snap EBT

Welcome to SNAP EBT information page for the state of Oregon.

The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) assists low-income working families and individuals, those on public assistance, the elderly, and those with disabilities in supplementing their food budgets.

All able-bodied SNAP participants in Oregon who are between the ages of 18 and 50 and live in one of the state’s 13 counties must fulfill additional employment requirements. If not, the maximum number of months you can get benefits in a 36-month period is 3 months.

An “Oregon Trail Card,” which may be used like a debit card to buy food wherever EBT is accepted, is used to disburse monthly cash benefits.
