Travala, a cryptocurrency-friendly travel service, has introduced support for the Shiba Inu crypto. SHIB may now be used to book over 3 million travel goods on the site, including flights, hotels, and vacation packages, all over the globe.

Travala Now Supports Shiba Inu

Travala, a travel website, said on Tuesday that Shiba Inu has been introduced as a payment mechanism on their site. SHIB is now listed as a payment option on Travala.com and may be used to book over 3 million travel items globally, according to the company's official account, which congratulated Shiba Inu fans for winning the token war it put up a few days ago.

On December 2, Travala organized a "token war" between FLOKI and SHIB and the cryptocurrency receiving the most votes after 72 hours was to earn a listing on Travala.com. "All users who vote for either token will earn a portion of $15,000 in AVA, distributed according to the votes cast," says the website.

SHIB Declared Winner After Voting 

According to Travala's website, "we pride ourselves on being the foremost cryptocurrency-friendly lodging booking platform." Users may now pay using 77 different cryptocurrencies, including the meme cryptocurrency dogecoin (DOG) and the recently added SHIB.

The crypto-friendly travel site announced earlier this month that total revenue for November was $7.2 million, increasing 683 percent year over year. Furthermore, in November, cryptocurrencies were used to pay for 82 percent of all bookings.

Shiba Inu's cryptocurrency use has been continuously increasing. Kraken and Gemini, two cryptocurrency exchanges, announced support for SHIB in November. This month, Newegg will take Shiba Inu for payment, while AMC Theatres will accept SHIB in the first quarter of next year. Meanwhile, enthusiasts of the Shiba Inu have started a campaign to have the popular trading site Robinhood take SHIB.

Therefore, it remains to be seen whether or not this latest decision from Travala to accept Shiba Inu as a payment mechanism will have a domino effect.
