The $ADI Foundation, an Abu Dhabi–based blockchain infrastructure developer, has partnered with H2O Hospitality, a South Korea–based hospitality technology provider, to expand blockchain-powered payments across the UAE travel and consumer sectors. The collaboration focuses on integrating $ADI Chain into real-world travel services to enable digital payments and identity tools for visitors.
Under the agreement, the $ADI Foundation will develop and deploy blockchain-based solutions, while H2O Hospitality will distribute them through its guest-facing platforms. The integration will be embedded into H2O’s smart check-in systems, allowing travelers to open digital wallets upon arrival and use a planned dirham-backed stablecoin for payments during their stay.
The system is designed to simplify blockchain usage for tourists, enabling transactions without requiring technical knowledge. By connecting check-in, payments, and on-site services through $ADI Chain, the partnership aims to create a unified digital payment experience across hotels and related venues.
The agreement was signed during Abu Dhabi Finance Week, where the $ADI Foundation also announced collaborations with several global financial institutions.
