According to a statement from the Dubai Media Office, Dubai Duty Free has enabled its customers to pay with cryptocurrency.
“Dubai Duty Free has officially launched http://Crypto.com Pay, becoming the first airport retailer in the Middle East to implement a regulated digital payment solution. Qualified customers can now use http://Crypto.com Pay when shopping at Dubai Duty Free at both Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum International Airport (AMIA) as well as online,” the statement said.
In early July, UAE residents could pay for Emirates airline tickets using the Crypto.com exchange. The service is available to UAE residents to make reservations in the national currency, UAE Dirhams.
