Delaware North is introducing InComm Payments’ cash-conversion service at selected sports venues where it runs food and retail operations. The system gives spectators who bring cash a way to pay at venues moving toward cashless transactions.

Fans can exchange cash for a network-branded gift card at guest services or other conversion points. The cards carry no purchase fee and can be used for food, merchandise and other eligible purchases wherever the payment network is accepted, including outside the venue.

The companies said spectators would be able to load amounts from $5 to $500. Cards may display the home team’s logo, and participating stadiums will offer conversion locations on game days, with possible availability on other days.

Delaware North’s Sport Service division operates in more than 25 major US professional sports venues, although the announcement applies to selected locations. Its payments leadership said the open-loop format lets fans take unused value home instead of leaving a balance restricted to stadium purchases.

InComm introduced the service in late 2020. The Delaware North partnership represents an additional distribution route through a venue-services operator as sports facilities prepare to welcome more spectators back.
