About this app

The NYC Plug is a free, independent directory of state-licensed cannabis dispensaries across New York. It is an information and discovery app for adults 21 and older. The NYC Plug does not sell, deliver, or facilitate the purchase of cannabis or any other product. There is no ordering, cart, checkout, or delivery.

DISCLAIMER: The NYC Plug is an independent app made by Dashible, Inc. It is NOT a government app. It does not represent, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or authorized by, the New York State Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) or any other government agency.

SOURCES OF GOVERNMENT INFORMATION

WHY LICENSED MATTERS
New York legalized adult-use cannabis under the 2021 MRTA, and only retailers licensed by the OCM may legally sell it (see OCM Laws and Regulations, linked above). Licensed dispensaries are tested, regulated, and accountable. Every dispensary listing in The NYC Plug comes from the OCM Dispensary Location Verification data linked above, and each listing links back to that OCM tool so you can confirm any shop yourself.

FOR ADULTS 21+
The NYC Plug is intended only for adults 21 and older, and the app is age-gated. It is an informational directory. It does not represent any government entity. Content is general information, not legal or medical advice. Cannabis laws vary, and you are responsible for following the law where you are.
