BTU-Hotel offers cryptocurrency rebates for users

January 9, 2019

Newly launched, this blockchain-based hotel booking platform doesn't take commission on bookings and gives back around 5% of each transaction to travelers using the site.

BTU-Hotel is one of the first services being built by Paris-based Booking Token Unit (BTU) Protocol, which describes itself as a “building block for any decentralized application or website” that offers booking features for its end users, for example in industries such as travel, finance, healthcare, automotive and more.

BTU Protocol co-founder Vidal Chriqui says the hotel service is launching with inventory primarily provided by CDS Groupe, totaling about two million hotels and other properties worldwide. The system is set up as a meta-search, showing users the lowest rates from more than 110 suppliers, including global distribution systems, online travel agencies and some brand sites.
