Corporate Traveler, the leading specialist provider of business travel management services for companies in the United Kingdom, will begin to accept Bitcoin as a payment method, thanks to a partnership with BitPay.

According to the press release, Corporate Traveler is not worried about the volatility of prices in the encryption markets, since the bitcoins will be converted directly into sterling. BitPay allegedly charges a 1% commission to convert funds, which according to Corporate Traveler is cheaper than credit card processing.

Regarding this partnership, Andy Hegley, UK General Manager of Corporate Traveler said: "We identified a growing demand from our customers for the option to pay in bitcoin for business travel bookings made by our travel advisors. We chose BitPay to manage the processing of our merchant because they facilitate it and handle the whole process of obtaining the Bitcoin or Bitcoin Cash from the client and the cash deposit in our account ".

BitPay allows transactions from any computer or mobile device, and invoices can be generated through an invoice by email or as online e-commerce transactions, which makes it convenient and reliable for Corporate Traveler customers.

"We are excited that Corporate Traveler is committed to offering customers the ability to pay in bitcoin and bitcoin cash, " said Sonny Singh, BitPay's Commercial Director. " We have seen a great growth of airlines and travel agencies that are taking advantage of the huge blockchain market, " he added.

BitPay, for its part, recently reported that it saw more than $ 1 billion in transactions last year. According to a January press release, the firm set a new record in terms of transaction fee income, having expanded its services to major customers such as Dish Networks, HackerOne and the state of Ohio.
