The whole inventory of 2,200,000+ hotels from Travala.com, all of which can be booked using more than 100 cryptocurrencies, is now fully discoverable on Skyscanner’s platforms.
As the first cryptocurrency-native platform to be linked with Skyscanner, Travala.com allows users to find millions of the best hotels and make reservations via the platform. On Travala.com, users may pay for hotel reservations using over 100 cryptocurrencies in addition to conventional payment options.
Due to the integration with Skyscanner, Travala.com may now be seen among well-known travel agencies like Booking.com, Agoda, and Expedia. Additionally, through leveraging Skyscanner’s 110 million monthly users who do 80 billion searches daily, it will attract new users to the Travala.com platform.

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 travelers who prefer alternative payment methods.”
After choosing a hotel on Travala.com using Skyscanner, users are taken to Travala.com to finalize their reservation. Through the AVA Smart Program, travelers may earn incentives when they complete their booking on Travala.com. Benefits from the program include booking savings, a 10% Bitcoin return, and additional web3 travel rewards.
Travala.com CEO Juan Otero said:
“Visibility is a crucial component of mass 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 travelers make their very first search.”
Skyscanner’s position as the top travel marketplace on the web is further cemented by its collaboration with Travala.com. In addition, it is anticipated to draw attention to the advantages of being able to book travel using well-known digital assets and boost traffic to Travala.com.
