You can use contactless payments at Pizza Hut and it accepts Apple Pay for both dine-in and online orders. This also means that you can use Google Pay, Samsung Pay and other mobile wallets that use contactless payments for dine-in orders there. Pizza Hut also accepts PayPal for online orders but not dine-in orders.

Like many other pizzerias, Pizza Hut also allows you to select cash on delivery as a payment option. Delivery drivers for all pizza restaurants typically carry around $20 because of robbery risks, though, so they don’t have enough change available to break large bills.

In states where the Restaurant Meals program is available, many Pizza Hut restaurants accept EBT from customers who are eligible for this program. If you qualify for this program, you can use this payment option for dine-in orders at many Pizza Hut locations in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Diego counties that accept this payment option. But I didn’t see any locations in Ventura or San Bernardino counties that accept EBT.

Pizza Hut restaurants in other states that participate in the RMP, such as Arizona, may also accept EBT. The RMP isn’t available for online orders so you can only use EBT to order a pizza in person at Pizza Hut and this also applies to other pizzerias that accept this form of payment.

While Pizza Hut does accept PayPal for online orders, restaurants usually don’t accept PayPal credit or payments from other BNPL apps.

Additional Background Information for Pizza Hut

If you’re not familiar with Pizza Hut, it’s a major pizzeria chain that has a lot of nostalgic appeal for many Americans. Its older restaurants have unique architecture that distinguishes them from other chain restaurants. These restaurants were also known for their decorative lamps and amenities such as their salad bars. Pizza Hut eventually moved away from its original dine-in restaurant format and began adding minimalist locations that served as hubs to prepare pizzas for delivery orders. Many of its restaurants in my area are now delivery-only. But now Pizza Hut has decided to appeal to nostalgia by remodeling its restaurants with retro features in some locations.

While Pizza Hut mainly serves pizza, you might also see a few other Italian entrees such as spaghetti and lasagna there. Additionally, Pizza Hut’s parent company Yum! Brands owns KFC and Taco Bell and has used these brands to create co-branded restaurants that provide additional dining options. For example, you could go to a Pizza Hut/KFC restaurant and get some fried chicken and french fries with your pizza, or you could order a pizza as well as some tacos and burritos at a Pizza Hut/Taco Bell restaurant.
