If you’re receiving CalFresh or other public assistance, you’ll now manage your benefits through BenefitsCal — California’s official portal for programs like CalFresh, Medi-Cal, and CalWORKs. This system replaced older platforms like C4Yourself, which was fully retired in 2023. Need help navigating BenefitsCal or figuring out if you qualify for a free phone? Cliq Mobile is here to guide you every step of the way.
Yes. If you’re receiving CalFresh, you likely qualify for a free smartphone and free wireless plan through the Lifeline program, offered by providers like Cliq Mobile.

You can apply through Cliq Mobile’s website. Simply fill out the application, upload proof of eligibility (like your CalFresh approval), and choose your phone or SIM option.
