Pay for hotels with crypto in Dubai.
Book and pay in dollar-stable USDC on Arbitrum. For Dubai hotels, that means a flat 0.5% instead of 2.9–3.5% card fees, no FX on international guests, and no chargebacks — settled in about a second.
Dubai has the highest international-guest share and among the highest room rates globally, and luxury properties such as Palazzo Versace Dubai already accept crypto. With Furlpay, Dubai hotels accept USDC on Arbitrum for a flat 0.5% — an alternative to card interchange, with no chargebacks and instant settlement.
Why it works for Dubai hotels
0.5%, not 3.5%
Hotels in Dubai keep more of every booking — a flat 0.5% versus card interchange of 2.9–3.5%.
No FX for guests
USDC is dollar-stable, so international visitors to Dubai avoid card foreign-transaction and conversion fees.
Instant settlement
Funds finalise on Arbitrum in about a second, not two to four days, with no rolling reserve.
No chargebacks
On-chain payments are final — no no-show or friendly-fraud chargebacks or dispute fees.
Runs beside the PMS
An API and hosted checkout added alongside the property's existing system — no rip-and-replace.
On-chain receipts
Every booking returns a verifiable receipt, useful for expenses and reconciliation.
