Most hotel bookers use websites such as Booking.com, Hotels.com, and Trivago.com to book their hotels. But, did you know that there is a lot of money to save if you use Locktrip, a cryptocurrency based hotel booking platform?
Maybe you are scared of the word cryptocurrency? There is no need to worry, because you do not need to own any cryptocurrency to use Locktrip, and you do not need to know anything about it either. The platform is available to everyone and you can easily pay for your booking using a VISA-card or some other payment card online. But, is it worth using Locktrip? I have just done a little video-test in which I compare the prices for Booking.com and Locktrip. Take a look at the video beneath to see what the test was like and what the results were.
Results of the Booking.com vs. Locktrip comparison
So, we compared three hotels in the video above, but in the reality we have compared many more hotel prices. Take a look beneath to check the results.
All the bookings we did were for three nights, from January 2nd to January 5th in 2019, and we simply wanted the cheapest possible room in the mentioned hotels.
Booking.com price | Locktrip price | |
Sofitel Budapest | 494 USD | 419 USD |
Grand Hotel Vienna | 986 USD | 782 USD |
Corus Hotel Hyde Park | 433 USD | 384 USD |
Eurostars Lex (Barcelona) | 209 USD | 171 USD |
Hyatt Regency Paris Etoile | 513 USD | 459 USD |
Radisson Blu Plaza Oslo | 484 USD | 457 USD |
New York Marriott Marquis | 779 USD | 575 USD |
Above you can see some of the test results. As you can see,
As you can see in the video above, you will not see the Dollar prices on the Locktrip website before you actually log in. I therefore recommend that you simply register and create a user first, and after that, it will be much easier to get an overview of the prices and compare what you find!
If you have done the comparison yourself, please return here to write a comment and to share your experience. Did Booking.com beat Locktrip, or did you end up with results similar to the one presented to you above, meaning Locktrip had much lower prices than Booking.com? I look forward to hearing from you as you write a comment!
A few words about Locktrip
We are often skeptical when we read and hear about new services such as Locktrip. How can they come up with so much lower prices than Booking.com? The reason is simple, they operate their platform with a 0% commission fee. In other words, they do not take anything paid for helping you get the booking done! As a result, the different between the Locktrip and the Booking.com prices can be described as the fees deducted by Booking.com after every single booking.
But, how can Locktrip operate in this way?
That is a valid
Locktrip will also “make money” as the platform is frequently used, as that will result in an increase in the price of the LOC tokens, which again will make the company worth more money! If you want more details about the token economy of Locktrip, read this article.
