Travala, a travel booking platform that specializes in crypto, recently revealed its integration with Solana, the fourth-largest blockchain by market capitalization.
SOL, USDT, and USDC, which are Solana-based assets, will be utilized to facilitate the booking of flights, hotels, and accommodations. Furthermore, Travala’s loyalty program will provide users with up to 10% of their booking value in SOL, Bitcoin, and Travala’s native token, AVA.
Otero observed that Solana has become one of the most widely used blockchains as a result of its scalability and efficiency, which creates new opportunities for the advancement of the travel industry. In addition to its Ethereum and BNB Chain variants, AVA will be accessible on the Solana network subsequent to a community vote.
Although Travala facilitates reservations with a diverse array of cryptocurrencies, only a limited number of them are accessible through user accounts. As a result of this new integration, users can now deposit and withdraw SOL, USDT, and USDC directly into their Travala accounts on the Solana network, thereby benefiting from zero-fee transactions for travel arrangements.
In the future, Travala plans to incorporate Solana into its development strategy, with the objective of producing products that improve the practical functionality of the Solana ecosystem.
