Get your free SNAP Card at thousands of locations

SNAP Cards are also available for free from thousands of retailers across the UK. You can also top-up SNAP at these retailers as well as at thousands of Post Offices across the country. Check our online Store Locator for the retailer nearest to you, or watch for the SNAP logo in shop windows.

How it works

Ask for a new SNAP Card or hand over your existing card to the shop assistant and tell them the amount you wish to load onto it: £20, £25, £30, £40, £50, £75 or £100. Please note that no card can have a balance of more than £100.

The assistant will swipe your card through a top–up terminal and then give you a receipt once you have paid.

You can start spending as soon as your SNAP Card is loaded. No need to register.

When the amount on your card is getting low, just top it up again.
