Features of THE ASTA
OTA x e-voucher platform integrated with crypto payment
THE ASTA, a blockchain-based platform where users can pay their accommodation with ASTA token while enjoying highly exclusive membership discount, has now developed into an integration of OTA + E-voucher platform to provide more services to users.
Online Travel Agent Platform
In 2020, we all have suffered from the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the travel and tourism industry. People have started taking time off for a staycation and ASTA Platform has spotted the trend and finally launched ASTA TOUR (now has renamed as THE ASTA), a platform providing travel products and enabling users to pay with ASTA to enjoy extra discount was launched last November.

Since opening in Nov 2021, we have signed partnership with lots of well-known premium hotel & resort groups such as Sono Resorts, Hanwha Hotels & Resorts, Kumho Resorts, High 1 Resorts, etc. Until now, there are up to 135 luxury hotels/ resorts available for booking on our platform. Check for our hotel partners HERE.
Mobile Voucher System
THE ASTA is expanding its business by signing the partnership with the mobile voucher companies.
Starting from next month, vouchers of the popular bakeries such as Paris Baguette, Baskin Robbins and Dunkin’ Donuts, coffee chains such as Starbucks and Caffè Pascucci, fast food shops such as McDonald’s, KFC and Lotteria, could be purchased on the platform with high discount rate by using ASTA.
Furthermore, voucher of hypermarket or retail chains like Lotte Mart, Homeplus could also be bought with discount. The platform is going to continue providing more special discount and promotion in the future.
Extra Discount when using ASTA
According to the example above, the night fee on the official hotel website is 500,000 KRW but you can book for a night for 165,000 KRW on THE ASTA when paying with credit card.
However, if you are paying with ASTA which you have already bought in the exchanges, you can enjoy UP TO 83.2 OFF for the accommodation. So you have saved up to 416,000 KRW for your accommodation. Doesn’t it sound attractive?
If you have never tried before, I strongly recommend you to purchase ASTA on one of the exchanges (Coinone, Cashierest & Bitsonic) and go to our homepage now!
The convergence of the blockchain technology and the OTA x e-voucher platform is a major technological leap forward, paving the way for the ASTA Platform to develop a more convenient payment environment and to expand our business network.
