In a groundbreaking partnership, Travala the world’s leading crypto-native travel platform, has teamed up with global travel giant Skyscanner, making its 2.2 million+ hotel listings bookable through Skyscanner’s widely used platform. The integration allows travellers to discover and book accommodations through Travala.com using over 100 cryptocurrencies, as well as traditional payment methods.
This collaboration marks Travala.com as the first crypto-focused platform to be integrated into Skyscanner, positioning it alongside travel heavyweights like Expedia, Booking.com, and Agoda. With Skyscanner attracting over 110 million monthly users who conduct 80 billion travel searches daily, Travala.com is set to reach a new audience of travellers interested in flexible, innovative payment options.
Sanja Vukik, Head of Hotels at Skyscanner, highlighted the significance of this integration: “This collaboration with Travala.com underscores our commitment to offering diverse, cutting-edge solutions that cater to the evolving needs of travellers. By integrating Skyscanner’s market-leading search capabilities with Travala.com’s crypto-native platform, we’re making travel planning more accessible and flexible for the growing number of travellers who prefer alternative payment methods.”
Travellers using Skyscanner can now explore Travala.com’s vast inventory of hotels and complete bookings directly on Travala.com. Those booking through the platform can also take advantage of the AVA Smart Program, which offers benefits such as up to 10% back in Bitcoin, booking discounts, and other web3 travel rewards.
Juan Otero, CEO of Travala.com, emphasised the importance of visibility in driving crypto adoption. “By displaying Travala.com on one of the world’s most popular travel marketplaces in Skyscanner, we’re demonstrating the utility of crypto and showcasing it as an available option from the moment travellers make their very first search.”
As this partnership gains traction, it is expected to significantly boost traffic to Travala.com and spotlight the advantages of using digital assets to book travel, further solidifying Skyscanner’s position as a leader in the global travel market.
