Does trip1 use encryption to protect my payment information?
Yes. trip1 uses HTTPS/TLS for all traffic and encrypts data at rest. Crypto payments never require card details, so there's less sensitive data to protect.

Encryption in transit
Every request between your browser and trip1's servers - and between trip1 and CoinGate - runs over HTTPS with modern TLS. That means the content of your booking, login, and checkout is protected from anyone snooping on the network in between.
Encryption at rest
Personal data, booking records, and account details are encrypted on the storage layer. Internal access is audit-logged and limited to staff who need it for support and operations.
Why crypto payments are inherently safer
Because you pay by scanning a QR code from your own wallet, trip1 never sees card numbers, CVVs, or bank account details. The most sensitive payment secrets simply aren't part of the flow.
What trip1 stores from the payment is limited: the coin used, the amount, and the on-chain transaction hash - all data that's already public on the blockchain.
