How to book an Aloft hotel with crypto - step by step
Step 1: Search for your hotel
Type Aloft or your destination into the search bar on trip1.com. Pick an Aloft property from the results.
Step 2: Choose your dates and room
Select your check-in and check-out dates, then compare room types and rates. Read the cancellation policy for your rate before you continue.
Step 3: Select crypto at checkout
Enter the guest details and choose to pay with crypto. Pick your coin and network, for example Bitcoin on the Lightning Network or USDC on Base.
Step 4: Send the exact amount
CoinGate shows a QR code and a wallet address. Scan or copy it and send the exact amount from any wallet before the payment window closes.
Step 5: Get your confirmation
Once your transaction confirms on-chain, we confirm the booking and email you the details. Show the confirmation and a matching photo ID at the front desk.
Which cryptocurrencies can I use?
trip1 accepts 120+ cryptocurrencies through CoinGate, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), USDC, Litecoin (LTC), XRP, Solana (SOL), Dogecoin (DOGE), and more. Many coins work on several networks, so you can choose a faster or cheaper option such as the Lightning Network (Bitcoin's fast payment layer) or a Layer 2 like Arbitrum for Ethereum.
Important: Check the blockchain network shown in the payment window before you send. Crypto sent on the wrong network can't be reversed, and trip1 can't recover it.
What happens at check-in
CoinGate converts your crypto to regular currency and pays the hotel, so the Aloft front desk sees a standard prepaid reservation. You won't need to explain anything about crypto. The hotel may still ask for a deposit for incidentals, depending on its own policy.
