The processor behind our crypto checkout, Crypto.com Pay, does not list FDUSD among its 30 App tickers or on any network. Its refund currencies are CRO, BTC, ETH, USDC and TUSD. We could not confirm that FDUSD can pay for a flight. Laters.com has no hidden booking fees, sessions last 10 minutes for most coins, and a sent payment cannot be reversed.
What works well
- No hidden booking fees from Laters.com on any payment method
- Crypto.com Pay lists BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC and PYUSD as alternatives
- Overpayments from other wallets are rebounded, less the blockchain fee
- Refunds keep the original pricing value, less network fees
What to watch
- FDUSD is not on the processor's supported coin list
- A sent crypto payment cannot be reversed
- Unsupported coins or networks are not refunded or rebounded
- Payments after the 10-minute session are rebounded, less fee
Coin Choice7/10
Crypto.com Pay lists 30 tickers for its App, including BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC and PYUSD, across networks such as Solana and Arbitrum One. FDUSD is on none of them, and Triple-A's list omits it too. That gap holds this at 7.
Fees8/10
Laters.com has no hidden booking fees, and Crypto.com Pay adds no fee when it converts at the market rate. No network fee amount is supplied, it depends on the wallet and network, and refunds carry a blockchain fee. That keeps it from 9.
Payment Speed7/10
A Crypto.com Pay session lasts 10 minutes for most coins and 20 for BTC. Late payments are rebounded whole, less the blockchain fee. Ten minutes is workable but tight for a wallet transfer, and no confirmation time is supplied.
Refunds7/10
Refunds are worth the original pricing value, less network fees, in CRO, BTC, ETH, USDC or TUSD. FDUSD is not a refund currency, the money goes to a refund address you choose, and no timeline is supplied.
The editorial take
- Strongest on
- Fees. Laters.com adds no booking fee, and Crypto.com Pay converts at the market rate with no added fee when the paid coin differs from the pricing currency.
- Held back by
- Coin support. FDUSD is absent from the processor's payment and refund lists, so we could not confirm it can pay for a flight at all.
What else can cost you
- Laters.com surcharge
- None. We add no booking fee, so the fare is the same whichever way you pay.
- Network fee
- Your wallet pays it to the network. No amount is supplied here, so your wallet and the checkout show the real figure.
- Late or short payment
- A session lasts 10 minutes for most coins and 20 for BTC. Underpaid or late payments are rebounded whole, less the blockchain fee.
- Wrong coin or network
- Funds sent in a coin or on a network the processor does not support will not be refunded or rebounded.
- Refund route
- Refunds come in crypto, not FDUSD, to a refund address you choose. On-chain refunds carry a network fee, and very small ones may be unavailable.
