Trip.com launches stablecoin payments, USDT/USDC can be used directly to book hotels and flights

【Crypto World】Travel booking platform Trip.com has launched a stablecoin payment option, now allowing users to book hotels and purchase flights directly with USDT and USDC. This payment feature is supported by the licensed crypto payment provider Triple-A based in Singapore, which facilitates interactions across multiple blockchains including Ethereum, Tron, Polygon, Solana, Arbitrum One, and TON.

Interestingly, the user experience is quite user-friendly. When booking hotels with USDT, users only need to fill in their name and email to complete the order, without having to input a bunch of personal information. This is quite convenient for privacy-sensitive users. However, purchasing flights isn’t as simple, as airline compliance requirements are stricter, and users still need to upload passport information and similar documents.

This case effectively illustrates the point—cryptocurrency payments are beginning to penetrate mainstream commercial scenarios, shrinking the gap between payment infrastructure and practical applications. Especially in the stablecoin sector, the utility of USDT and USDC is becoming increasingly evident, and cross-chain deployment offers users more options.
