Cheapair.com Takes Digital Currencies to New Heights
The first online travel agency to accept Bitcoin, Cheapair.com has announced that they are now accepting Litecoin and the Internet meme-based Dogecoin.
Fans in the Altcoin arena are ecstatic, as the open-source Dogecoin is the most transferred digital currency in existence.
Flyers can now book flights, hotels, and rental cars all using Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Dogecoin.
According the Cheapair.com CEO Jeff Klee, the move was largely prompted by the tremendously positive community response and lucrative results since the inception of the Bitcoin acceptance.
“We’ve had some success with bitcoin, we’ve gotten some new customers there – enthusiastic customers. We’ve gotten a great response since we began accepting [bitcoin], and we had some requests for dogecoin and litecoin. We figured why not?”
The company reported that they raked in over $1.5 million in bitcoin revenue since the inception of the program, and they are expecting even better results from the newer and more cultish Litecoin and Dogecoin protocols.
The company has also chosen a new payments processor in Gocoin for these altcoin transactions, as they are more proficient than Coinbase with the altcoin technology. The company will continue its relationship with Coinbase as processor of all Bitcoin transactions.
Now Bitcoin’s younger siblings get a chance to take flight and travel the world with convenience.
