I've only ever paid with a card, but you basically just hand the card to the attendant and they run it through the card reader on the pump just like you would in a different state. As far as I can tell there is nothing unique about the pumps in Oregon compared to everywhere else.

I see, thanks. I guess cards with PIN aren't very common then.

Nope not in the US. They're getting increasingly popular but I'd still say 70% to 80% of gas pumps don't support them.

With the advent of contactless cards, most cards with PINs don’t need them for the kinds of purchases you generally do at a gas pump (thankfully).
