Wego Adds Stablecoin Payments for Flights & Travel Bookings

Dubai- and Singapore-headquartered travel booking platform Wego has partnered with Singapore-based digital payments institution Triple-A to introduce stablecoin payments for flights and travel bookings across its platform.

The update allows travellers to complete bookings using supported stablecoins, while Wego continues receiving settlement in traditional local currencies.

According to the company, the move is intended to offer additional payment flexibility for users making cross-border travel bookings, particularly in markets where international transactions can face higher decline rates or where access to traditional payment systems is more limited.

“Travel is inherently global, but the payment experience does not always reflect that,” Mamoun Hmidan said in a statement.

Wego stated that the new option is aimed at travellers who already use stablecoins for payments and value storage, as digital currencies continue seeing wider use in international transactions and online services.

Alexandre Morin said the integration is expected to support smoother cross-border payment flows while maintaining existing settlement systems on the platform.

According to the companies, payment processing, compliance procedures, and currency conversion will be managed through Triple-A’s infrastructure, while Wego continues operating within its existing payment and settlement structure.

Triple-A stated that the partnership operates under international Anti-Money Laundering and Know Your Customer compliance standards and connects to a network reaching more than 700 million digital currency users globally.
