Vilnius, Lithuania, April 27th, 2026, Chainwire TravelUp begins supporting crypto payments through CoinGate, giving travelers a faster, borderless way to book flights, hotels and holiday packages worldwide. Following the announcement , TravelUp now supports cryptocurrency payments for flights, hotels, and holiday packages through a new integration with CoinGate, catering to modern travelers who prefer fast, borderless ways to book trips online and increasingly opt for alternative payment methods. This move makes TravelUp one of the few leading UK travel agencies now accepting crypto for flights, hotels and package holidays. Traditional travel payments often involve card restrictions, cross-border fees and settlement delays. The new crypto option removes many of those barriers. Customers can now select their preferred travel service at TravelUp , choose “Pay with Crypto” at checkout and complete the transaction directly through CoinGate . “We’re seeing more people treat crypto as a practical way to pay online, especially for purchases that reach across borders,” said Vilius Semėnas, Chief Executive Officer of CoinGate. “Working with TravelUp brings that convenience to travel, where speed and flexibility often matter most.” The integration supports widely used digital currencies across major networks, including BTC, ETH, SOL, LTC and USDC. Layer-2 coverage on Ethereum and Solana networks enable even faster and more affordable settlement. This decision follows rising consumer interest in digital payments. Crypto has seen increasing adoption among digital-first buyers, particularly those who shop internationally or prefer to manage funds natively on blockchain networks. For travelers, the option offers flexibility when moving across regions, handling multiple currencies or booking on short timelines. “Partnering with CoinGate to accept cryptocurrency payments allows us to offer a truly global, flexible, and modern way to pay for flights, hotels, and holiday packages. We’re proud to be leading the UK travel industry in embracing this technology and look forward to expanding this offering across multiple international markets,” said Craig Ashford, Chief Commercial Officer of TravelUp. Crypto payments are available to all TravelUp customers effective immediately.
