NCR Voyix Corporation announced a five‑year exclusive platform agreement with Pilot Travel Centers, the largest travel‑center operator in North America. Under the deal, Pilot will deploy Voyix’s point‑of‑sale and fuel‑management solutions across more than 900 locations, covering both convenience‑store and fuel‑retail operations in 44 U.S. states and five Canadian provinces. The partnership will serve an estimated 1.2 million guests per day, giving Voyix a unified platform that spans the full spectrum of Pilot’s retail and commercial fuel services.
The agreement expands Voyix’s footprint in the high‑volume convenience‑fuel market and provides a recurring revenue stream that aligns with the company’s transformation from a hardware‑centric business to a software‑driven commerce platform. By integrating its POS and fuel‑management capabilities into Pilot’s existing infrastructure, Voyix can accelerate the rollout of its Voyix Commerce Platform, which is built on an AI‑enabled microservices architecture and was launched in January 2026. The deal also positions Voyix to capture a significant share of U.S. fuel‑retail transaction volume and to leverage its platform’s scalability across a large, high‑traffic customer base.
Pilot Travel Centers, a Berkshire Hathaway subsidiary, has an established relationship with Voyix that the new agreement builds upon. The partnership extends prior collaborations on point‑of‑sale technology and sets the stage for deeper integration of Voyix’s cloud‑to‑edge applications across Pilot’s network. The expanded scope includes additional platform capabilities beyond POS and fuel management, such as advanced analytics and payment processing, that will be delivered through the Voyix Commerce Platform.
The deal comes at a time when Voyix’s Q4 2025 earnings demonstrated a 6% revenue increase to $720 million and a 10% margin expansion to 18.1% adjusted EBITDA. The recurring revenue from Pilot is expected to strengthen Voyix’s financial profile, but analysts have noted concerns about operational challenges and the company’s ongoing transition to a recurring‑revenue model. The partnership is therefore seen as a key milestone that could help offset short‑term headwinds while reinforcing Voyix’s long‑term growth strategy.
"Our results for the quarter and for the year were in line with our expectations and reflect the progress we have made to streamline our organization and reposition the company as a platform‑led business supported by our leading services offerings and integrated payments capabilities," said CEO Jim Kelly. "We are proud to continue to support Pilot as they transform their point‑of‑sale system and fuel technology and accelerate new possibilities for their business and their guests," added Chief Product Officer Nick East. Pilot CTO Andy Lupo noted, "At a time when technology is moving at an unparalleled pace, we are excited to be leveraging this innovative platform to transform our point‑of‑sale operating environment for the future, while simplifying and modernizing our tech stack."
The market reaction to the announcement was tempered by concerns about operational challenges and the broader transition to a recurring‑revenue model. While the deal signals a significant win for Voyix, investors remain cautious about the company’s ability to sustain momentum in the face of short‑term execution risks.
