"This is the best app. I don’t have to call the 1800 on the back of my card anymore for the balance. I just open Propel up and can retrieve my balance just that simple and quick. Plus they have so many offers!!"

"Propel is one of the most useful apps in my opinion that is available. It keeps me up-to-date on my food stamp balance and offers. I just think it's a great app, it's a 2 or 3 app all-in-one."

FAQ
How does the Propel app work?
Propel connects to your state's portal with your permission. Then, Propel gathers your EBT balance and transaction history, makes it easier to read, and displays it in the app.
This means you don't need to call a 1-800 number or log in to a state website.
The app also helps you manage your benefits with:
- Deposit predictions, so you know when your next payment is coming
- Clear transaction details, including store names and online purchases
- Security features, like fraud monitoring and out-of-state transaction blocking
Is the Propel app free?
Yes! The Propel app is completely free to use.
Does the Propel app work in all states?
Propel supports EBT programs in 52 states and territories, including SNAP and Summer EBT.
It works in every U.S. state except Iowa and Montana and is also available in Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Guam.
How does the Propel app make money?
We make money through advertising, but we’re selective about what we promote.
Most offers are free or discounted services only available to EBT cardholders—like free phones, discounted internet, and grocery savings at major retailers.
What else does the Propel app offer?
The Propel app is more than just balance checking—here are some of our additional features:
- EBT security features, like suspicious activity monitoring & out of state transaction blocking
- Easy-to-understand updates about changes to policy or benefits programs, so you’re always in the loop
- Exclusive offers & discounts on groceries, utilities, and phone & internet bills
- Job & gig opportunities that fit your schedule
