The native token of one of the biggest cryptocurrency platforms in the world is now available for payments across Travala.com’s far-reaching presence in 230 countries and territories

Travala.com, the leading blockchain-based hotel booking platform, has today added EOS as a native payment option for bookings made on its platform.

Matthew Luczynski, CEO and Founder of Travala.com, said, “it’s great to see platform tokens initially developed for use within exchanges moving into real-world use cases to further drive cryptocurrency adoption to the masses.”

Adding EOS as a payment option is envisaged to further drive the use of EOS for travel related services and promote Travala.com to the sizeable and passionate EOS community who can now book accommodation via the Travala.com platform. Not only can they enjoy the exclusive discounts and loyalty that Travala.com’s AVA SMART program offers but they will also be entitled to an exclusive 5% EOS-Back for all bookings paid in EOS until the 7th October 2019 as a promotional offering.

With its extensive global presence, Travala.com’s expansive portfolio of over 90,000 destinations offers and over 1.6 million accommodation offerings. By leveraging an equitable transparent pricing model, consumers benefit from increased cost-savings while the burden of high commission fees is removed for participating hotel partners.
