Neither Crypto.com Pay nor Triple-A, the processors at our checkout, lists ousd on their payment-currency pages or any on-chain network. Funds sent in an unsupported coin are not refunded. Sessions last 20 minutes for BTC and 10 for other coins. Laters.com adds no hidden booking fees. We could not confirm ousd works here, so check the checkout before sending anything.
What works well
- Laters.com lists no hidden booking fees on any fare.
- A processor converts at the market rate with no additional fees.
- USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH and DOGE are listed coins instead.
What to watch
- ousd is on no supported list. Do not send it blindly.
- A sent crypto payment cannot be reversed.
- Unsupported coins are not refunded or rebounded.
- Sessions last 10 minutes for non-BTC coins.
Coin Choice7/10
Neither Crypto.com Pay nor Triple-A lists ousd on their payment-currency pages. That absence is what holds this to the 7 floor, which means adequate with a real caveat. USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH and DOGE are the coins those processors do list.
Fees8/10
Laters.com lists no hidden booking fees, and a processor adds no extra fee when it converts at the market rate. No network fee is supplied for ousd, so it depends on your wallet and the network. It stops at 8 because no ousd route is confirmed to check against.
Payment Speed7/10
Crypto.com Pay allows 20 minutes for BTC and 10 minutes for other coins, and later arrivals count as late payments. That is a short window for a wallet transfer. No confirmation time is supplied, and no ousd route is confirmed. Hence the 7 floor.
Refunds7/10
Crypto.com Pay refunds in CRO, BTC, ETH, USDC or TUSD, never ousd, minus network fees and to a refund address you give. Funds sent in an unsupported coin are not refunded or rebounded. No timeline is supplied. That is why this sits at the floor.
The editorial take
- Strongest on
- Fees. Laters.com lists no hidden booking fees, and a processor adds no extra charge when it converts at the market rate.
- Held back by
- Acceptance. ousd sits on none of Crypto.com Pay's or Triple-A's coin lists or networks, and funds sent in an unsupported coin are not refunded or rebounded.
- Best for
- Holders of ousd who confirm checkout lists it before sending.
What else can cost you
- Laters.com surcharge
- None. Laters.com adds no booking fee or surcharge for paying in ousd, so the fare is the same as with other methods.
- Network fee
- An Ethereum gas fee may apply. Your wallet pays it to the network, and no amount is supplied here.
- Short, late or wrong payment
- Crypto.com Pay treats underpaid, late and wrong-currency payments as unresolved, and returns funds minus the blockchain fee. Check the processor's terms.
- Wrong network or address
- A sent payment cannot be recalled. Use only the network and address shown at checkout, since funds sent elsewhere may be lost.
- Refund route
- Refunds follow airline fare rules. The processor's refund currencies do not include ousd, so check checkout for what comes back.
Where ousd leads
- Laters.com lists no hidden booking fees on any fare.
- A processor converts at the market rate with no additional fees.
- USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH and DOGE are listed coins instead.
Before you apply
- You need a wallet that can send ousd to an external address, such as an ERC-20 wallet like MetaMask or Ledger.
- No minimum or maximum amount is supplied here, so check the checkout before paying a very small or very large fare.
- Identity checks are not described in the supplied terms. Read the checkout and the Crypto.com Pay documentation.
- No per-country availability is confirmed for ousd, so check at checkout before you plan the trip.
