SeaDream Yacht Club has made history by becoming the first cruise line to accept cryptocurrencies as payment for all its voyages. From now on, SeaDream guests can book their ultra-luxury cruises to the Caribbean, the Mediterranean, Norway, and Northern Europe using Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH) , and more than 200 other widely used cryptocurrencies.
As a pioneer in adopting cryptocurrencies, SeaDream uses the cryptocurrency payment platform, Coinbase Commerce, to ensure secure, reliable, and efficient payment processing.
“SeaDream has always been an innovator, setting new standards in luxury travel. By accepting cryptocurrencies, we are adopting a payment solution that is increasingly in demand by our guests,” commented Andreas Brynestad of SeaDream Yacht Club.
SeaDream is not only the first cruise line, but also the first major travel company to accept cryptocurrencies, setting a new standard for the future of travel and payments.
SeaDream is also implementing a digital payment solution for cryptocurrencies on its website. This secure payment option will be fully integrated into the current booking system and is expected to be available in the coming weeks.
“This reinforces our commitment to staying ahead of emerging trends. For us, cryptocurrency is the next natural step,” Brynestad stated.
SeaDream will also be the first cruise line to accept cryptocurrencies as a form of payment for full yacht charters. “The ability to use cryptocurrencies adds convenience and flexibility for our discerning charter clients, eliminating the challenges of currency exchange and enabling seamless transactions,” Brynestad noted.
SeaDream Yacht Club offers 7- to 15-day voyages to exclusive ports and hidden destinations around the world. Its commitment to the motto “It’s Yachting, Not Cruising” is reflected in the intimate size of its vessels, abundant outdoor space, a distinctly luxurious onboard lifestyle, highly anticipatory service, and an all-inclusive offering that encompasses special services, activities, watersports, gourmet dining, premium wines and beverages, as well as gratuities.
In addition, SeaDream complements the holistic well-being of its guests by offering the largest plant-based menu at sea and the only certified spa in Thailand on board, the SeaDream Spa.
