The stablecoin payment feature of the overseas Travel platform has recently fully transitioned from the beta testing phase. Now, users can directly settle their flight and hotel bookings with USDT or USDC, making the entire process as smooth as traditional payment methods.

This change is quite interesting. It actually reflects the core narrative of payfi in 2026 — using stablecoins as a bridge to gradually integrate Web3 payment capabilities into everyday consumption scenarios. On a small scale, it provides new options for high-frequency consumption like travel and transportation; on a larger scale, it shows that stablecoins are seeking real-world application implementations, rather than just remaining in trading or lending fields.

If this model can be successfully implemented, it means that in the future, when going out, holding stablecoins in your wallet will be enough to pay directly, eliminating the need for conversions. This indeed lowers the barrier to use for those accustomed to holding coins.

watching the mempool on this one... travel platforms adopting stables feels like another layer of adoption theater, but ngl the arbitrage opportunities between regions could get spicy once liquidity fragments

Really? Travel expenses paid directly with stablecoins. Now holders finally don’t have to be so troublesome when going out. Honestly, if it really works smoothly, I’d like to try it. I just worry it might be another project that looks impressive but actually offers a terrible experience. We’ve been hearing about payfi for over a year, and now there’s finally some real progress? If this can really be rolled out widely, the exchange rate issues will be largely solved. But domestic users still have to wait. It’s about time. Stablecoins should be used for eating, clothing, housing, and transportation, not for dancing around on exchanges every day.

Finally, there is something tangible to show for it. No more armchair strategizing. Stablecoin payments should have been this way from the start. Hopefully, it's not just a fleeting trend. No more worries about exchange rates when on business trips. Paying directly with USDT is really convenient. Honestly, this is much more reliable than air projects. At last, we see something real. Using stablecoins for travel payments? Sounds good, but let's see how long it can last. The story of payfi has been told for so long. There should be some real-world applications with actual value. This kind of everyday application is the true path Web3 should take.
