June 11, 2026 – Singapore, Singapore
Travala, the world’s leading crypto-native travel booking platform, today announced the launch of the world’s first AI travel solution.
The system enables independents to search, book, and pay for more than 2.2 million hotels – including Marriott, Hilton, IHG, and other leading hotel chains- without human intervention until payment authorization. To promote adoption, Travala is offering a 10% cbBTC (Coinbase Wrapped Bitcoin) bonus to developers who build and integrate AI agents with the Travala Travel MCP, profitable bookings made through those agents.
The economy has been increasing over the past 12 months, with the overall value of business enterprises. expected to reach $8 billion in 2026 before rising to $3.5 trillion by 2031. Morgan Stanley Research predictions that “shoppers” could account for up to 20% of all online purchases by 2030, driven by the evolution of independent, digital-based systems. By introducing the world’s first environmental inspection system, Travala is establishing a global standard that allows agents to inspect the world’s natural resources with precision, instead of manual and machine-guided operations.
Travala Travel MCP, a Model Context Protocol designed for business transactions, uses the Base blockchain and the x402 protocol, an open standard that enables instant stablecoin payments directly on the Internet for APIs, applications, and AI agents without manual intervention. This architecture removes the friction of traditional deposit and payment methods, resulting in an airless USDC on Base with near real-time and transaction fees of approximately $0.01 per deposit.
For travelers, this technology powers an AI travel team that can plan and navigate all trips within a single chat thread at Claude. Concierge works in the form of communication, bookings, searches, reservations, and cancellations. Security is maintained through the use of ERC-7715 session keys, which ensures that even if a sponsor can request a payment, the final signers remain isolated in the secure environment of the user’s wallet.
Developers get the opportunity to earn money automatically through Travala’s rewards program which offers a 10% cbBTC interest on every successful deposit, settled onchain directly to the developer’s wallet without the need for a manual invoice. Travala Travel MCP also uses ERC-8004 to verify the sponsor’s reputation by verifying real-world results, creating a machine-verified ‘trust layer’ that rewards high performers and protects the integrity of the environment.
As the protocol scales, new information will be added to the protocol along with other transportation items, such as airplanes. The AVA token – a native cryptocurrency used in the travel loyalty program on Travala – is also expected to provide additional support and support the growth of the Travala Travel MCP service.
“The launch of the world’s first AI transportation system marks the death of the payment button and the start of the autonomous economy,” said Juan Otero, CEO of Travala. “By combining our world-class transportation with the world’s first automated transportation system, we are establishing Travala as an online travel railroad.”
“The base is built to be the home of the onchain economy, and Travala’s Travel MCP is what it looks like, the devs are using our tools to use machines and machines that are stable, independent, and global. We are happy to see Travala leading the use cases in the real world of agent payments,” added Sam Franks, Head of Partner.
The growth of agency sales reflects a major shift in the travel industry from traditional user channels to a protocol environment designed for independent agents. Being the first to offer a complete AI-powered booking system, Travala is positioning the Travala Travel MCP as the starting point for a future where travel is automated.
