How to pay for a hotel with USDC - step by step

Step 1 - Search for your hotel

Go to trip1.com and enter your destination, dates, and number of guests. Browse from over 3 million hotels in 190+ countries.

Step 2 - Select your hotel and room

Choose the hotel and room type that fits your needs. Review the total price and cancellation policy before proceeding.

Step 3 - Choose USDC at checkout

On the checkout page, select "Pay with crypto." In the CoinGate payment window, select USDC and your preferred network.

Step 4 - Pick your network

CoinGate supports USDC on seven networks: Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Optimism, and BNB Smart Chain. Solana and Polygon typically offer the lowest fees.

Step 5 - Send the payment

Scan the QR code or copy the wallet address and send the exact USDC amount from your wallet. Since USDC is pegged to the US dollar, the amount you send matches the booking price. Important: Send the payment promptly - the invoice has a limited time window.

Step 6 - Receive your booking confirmation

Once the transaction confirms on-chain, your booking is confirmed. You'll receive a confirmation email with your booking details.

Important: Always verify the wallet address and blockchain network before sending USDC. Sending to the wrong network cannot be reversed and trip1 cannot recover those funds.
