Do you need to gas up and wonder where you can use Apple Pay? We got you.
A lot of people have shifted to cashless payments, especially during the pandemic to avoid direct contact with others. This, added to the convenience easily provided by not having to use cash, has normalized cashless payments in unprecedented ways.
Payment for food, clothes, utilities—you name it— cashless payment is available for all of them. Gas payments also fit the bill, and many vehicle owners trust one payment platform—Apple Pay.
Now, not all gas stations accept Apple Pay, and I understand the hassle that could bring (I tried to look for gas stations that take Apple Pay near me!).
So, I’ve looked into it and searched for the gas stations you can go to. No need to figure things out on your own—this guide will save you time!
As a bonus, I also give you the step-by-step process of paying for gas through your phone.
Ready? Let’s go!
