Travala.com Expanding Cryptocurreny Use.

Cryptocurrencies are viewed as tools to make the actual fiat or money, something that can’t be spent for our needs. With developments such as this, we get to see Crypto as money and that mindset might soon change. 

Juan Otero, CEO and Co-founder, Travala.com, says: “With cryptocurrency adoption on the rise, we want to ensure our users have payment choice and transparent pricing for every trip booked. EPS Rapid is the best API product in the travel industry and this partnership unlocks greater accommodation choice and availability for our users, including 4- and 5-star hotels in top destinations.

Travala.com recently partnered with Emurgo to accept Cardano (ADA) as one of the options for payment of flights and hotel bookings.
