Gate Ignites Travel Revolution: 35M Crypto Users Gain Access to 1M Hotels & 150 Airlines via Sleap.io Partnership

Gate just rewrote the entire travel rulebook—and traditional finance didn't even see it coming.

Massive Market Disruption

The platform's new Gate Travel initiative, powered by Sleap.io, slashes through legacy booking systems. It bypasses outdated payment rails and connects 35 million crypto holders directly to a staggering 1 million hotels and 150 airlines. No more converting to fiat. No more begging banks for permission to spend your own money.

The New Standard

This isn't an upgrade—it's a hostile takeover of the entire travel economy. It proves utility isn't some future promise; it's a feature you can use to book a flight to Bali tomorrow. Suddenly, every other loyalty program looks like a horse and buggy at a Grand Prix.

Traditional finance, of course, will call it a gimmick—right before they try to build a worse, more expensive copycat version funded by your checking account fees.

Gate Travel Highlights

• Global Inventory: Over 1 million hotels and worldwide flights, including refundable and non-refundable fare options.
• Flexible Payments: Pay in crypto via Gate Pay or in fiat with credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay.
• Localized Experience: Multilingual interface optimized to enhance the travel experience for regional preferences.
