Cannabis is used for medical and recreational purposes across the U.S., depending on the state you live in and their laws on consumption.

Purchasing cannabis from dispensaries, can be done in-store as well as online. For many, in-store purchasing provides an experience to not only shop but also speak with experienced budtenders about cannabis, especially if you’re a new consumer.

While some customers enjoy shopping in-store, others would prefer the convenience of ordering ahead online for faster pickup or even home delivery. These alternative options, attract new customers and keep loyal customers coming back. Some dispensaries even offer discounts when signing up for their mobile app, which also introduces them to rewards programs on purchases made over time. The digital age of smartphones and tablets, in addition to computers, has made it that much more convenient to shop online for anything, including cannabis.

Home delivery services continue to expand in the states that have legalized cannabis, especially for those who use it as medicine. In the state of Florida, it’s currently only legal for approved patients with medical conditions, and delivery is a great Segway to reach that demographic. Not all dispensaries offer delivery services, so it’s best to check online or call to see which stores provide home delivery in your area in accordance with state and local law.
