(Updated on December 1, 2023) One of the questions we often get from our readers is whether you can use EBT Cash at gas stations. We will answer that question below and provide you with the list of over 50 gas stations that accept EBT Cash and food stamps. We will also review the list of items you are allowed to buy with your EBT card at gas stations.
Can You Use EBT/Food Stamps at Gas Stations?
To answer this question, we first have to review the list of items you are allowed to buy with your EBT Card. We have a detailed article here on approved items on the food stamps list, but here is a summary of the items you are allowed to buy with your EBT Card:
- Bread and Cereals
- Fruit and Vegetables
- Meats, Fish, and Poultry
- Dairy Products
- Seeds and Plants that produce food
So, the answer to the question is YES, you can use your EBT card at gas stations, as long as you are purchasing items on the approved list. However, since most gas stations have convenience stores that sell bread, milk, dairy products and more, you are allowed to use your EBT Card at gas stations to purchase these items.
What you CANNOT buy with EBT Cash
You are not allowed to use your EBT card to buy the following items, including at gas stations:
- Gas
- Alcohol
- Cigarettes
- Lottery Tickets
- Pet Food
- Toiletries
- Vitamins
- Medicine
- Hot Food
- Prepared Food
