Centrum Air has affirmed its status as a technological leader in the region by becoming the first airline in Central Asia to implement crypto acquiring from the Asterium platform on its official website.
This implementation provides passengers with an entirely new level of financial options, supplementing traditional payment methods with advanced crypto technologies. The integration of the Asterium crypto acquiring system has eliminated the boundaries between classic financial instruments and crypto assets, making the process of purchasing air tickets maximally simple and seamless.
When booking a regular flight through the airline's official website, the passenger specifies the national currency (UZS) as the unit of account. When the transaction is confirmed via the Asterium crypto wallet, the system automatically and discreetly sells the user's crypto assets. Subsequently, the funds are deposited directly into Centrum Air's bank account without any delays in the national currency.
The partnership also expands capabilities for owners of Asterium crypto cards. These fintech solutions function in conjunction with both the local payment system Humo and leading global companies Visa and Mastercard. Tickets can be purchased on centrum-air.com.
