WIC Vendors

The Oklahoma WIC Program partners with grocery stores (WIC vendors) to provide an effective and convenient way for WIC participants to receive WIC foods. The program provides participants with WIC foods in specific quantities and types, and Cash Value Benefits for fresh, frozen, and canned fruits and vegetables. The eWIC card contains food prescriptions designed to meet nutritional needs, promote healthy birth outcomes, and promote optimal growth and development of children. Authorized WIC vendors accept eWIC Cards for the WIC Approved Items.

WIC vendors process the eWIC card in accordance with the Oklahoma WIC Program Vendor Handbook and Vendor Agreement Information.
