Propelr Partners with Deligo to Power Frictionless Payments at Checkout for C-Stores and Food Service Operators

The partnership brings secure payment acceptance to Deligo's AI-powered self-checkout technology, enabling food service retailers to deliver a faster, more seamless checkout experience while improving operational efficiency.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 1, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Propelr, a leading payment acceptance provider, has partnered with Deligo, an innovator in visual AI self-checkout solutions for convenience stores and food service providers to embed Propelr's payment processing capabilities directly into Deligo's platform, delivering an end-to-end point-of-sale experience built for fast-paced retail environments.

Deligo's technology uses visual AI to identify products without traditional barcode scanning or manual item selection, helping businesses move customers through checkout faster while reducing friction and operational demands. With Propelr powering the payments experience, merchants can pair Deligo's intelligent checkout technology with secure payment acceptance in one single solution.

For food service operators, convenience retailers, and other self-service environments, the combined solution is designed to make every transaction simpler — from the moment a customer places an item on the kiosk to the moment they tap to pay. By bringing checkout and payments together, businesses can create a more consistent experience while reducing the complexity associated with managing separate payment systems.

"Convenience and food service operators can't afford friction at checkout — it's the last impression they leave with every guest. Deligo's visual AI eliminates the scan-and-search bottleneck that slows lines down, and pairing that with Propelr's payment infrastructure means the entire transaction, from item recognition to tap-to-pay, happens in seconds. This partnership unlocks a complete checkout solution instead of one more system to stitch together, and that's exactly what high-volume retail environments need right now."
Charles Willoughby, Head of Global Partnerships at Deligo.

Propelr's flexible infrastructure is designed to support the diverse requirements of Deligo's customer base while maintaining a secure checkout experience. Customer payments are protected through PCI-certified point-to-point encryption and tokenization, helping safeguard sensitive data throughout the transaction.

The partnership reflects a shared commitment to removing friction from the checkout experience and giving businesses the technology they need to serve customers more efficiently.

"Modern convenience and food service businesses operate in high-throughput environments where every second at the counter impacts revenue and customer satisfaction," said Paul Guidone, Executive Director at Propelr. "By combining Deligo's technology with our robust infrastructure, we're equipping merchants with a unified, secure system that speeds up lines, elevates the guest experience, and drives long-term operational efficiency."
