24.05.2025 8:00 1 min. read Alexander Stefanov
The use of crypto in travel has surged, with new data from Travala and Binance Pay revealing that nearly 80% of bookings on Travala are now made using digital assets.
In just two years, crypto-funded trips jumped from $45 million in 2023 to over $103 million by mid-2025.
Binance Pay has become the most-used external payment method on the platform, overtaking cards and mobile wallets like Apple Pay.
Crypto travelers also behave differently—they spend more (averaging $1,211 per booking vs. $469 for fiat users), book closer to their travel dates, and are more likely to revisit destinations.
Top cities include Dubai, Tokyo, London, and Lisbon—urban centers with strong digital infrastructure and growing crypto adoption.
What started as a niche option has now become a preferred way to travel, redefining how—and where—people explore the world.
