While you can use EBT for in-store purchases at 76 stations, you can only use this form of payment to buy packaged food and other qualifying products there. You can’t buy gas with EBT. You usually can’t use EBT to buy prepared food at 76 either but there’s one exception. If you’re visiting a gas station with a pop-up restaurant, such as a Subway sandwich shop, it may be possible to use EBT there if the restaurant participates in the Restaurant Meals program.
Like most gas stations, 76 doesn’t accept payments from any BNPL apps such as Afterpay and Affirm. If you’re looking for an alternative, there are some Chevron gas stations that allow you to pay with BNPL apps.
This gas station also has its own branded credit card. If you get the 76 credit card, you can also use it at Phillips and Conoco gas stations. The credit card is issued by Synchrony Bank.
More Information About 76 Stations

Now gas stations sell gas with even higher octane ratings but this station has kept its original name. If you visit a 76 station it may also offer additional auto services such as smog checks and a car wash. Some 76 stations may have pop-up restaurants and 24-hour convenience stores as well.
