REAL Jet and Crypto.com Give Customers a New Way to Pay for Private Flights

NewsSai Krishna05 Aug 2026

Customers Can Now Use Crypto.com Pay™ to fly REAL Jet

NEW YORK, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- REAL Jet, a REAL SLX company, has officially launched Crypto.com Pay, allowing customers to use the digital payment solution on the company's charter booking platform. With it, REAL Jet becomes the first private aviation company to accept Crypto.com Pay for private charter flights. Customers with a Crypto.com account, booking through REAL Jet, can now select Crypto.com Pay, with transactions processed securely and in compliance with applicable regulatory standards. Crypto.com Pay is available to eligible US residents for bookings priced and settled in US Dollars (USD). The launch builds on the Crypto.com–REAL partnership formed in February 2026 to reimagine VIP experiences across business, sport, and culture.

"In 2001, we created the fractional jet card, making private aviation accessible to a much wider audience. Crypto.com Pay is the next leap forward. Crypto.com has more than 100 million users and they're building for the next 100 million. These are the people that REAL Jet was built to serve. This generation transacts the way they live: instant, digital, and frictionless," said Kenny Dichter, Founder and Chairman of REAL SLX.

"Partnering with REAL Jet is a milestone for Crypto.com and our Crypto.com Pay feature, which was designed for ease of use and seamless integration," said Joe Anzures, Chief Business Officer, Crypto.com. "We are proud to support REAL Jet as it embraces the crypto payments space."

The collaboration comes as Crypto.com accelerates its expansion across all asset classes. In July 2026, Crypto.com secured a $400 million strategic investment from Citadel Securities, its first institutional funding round, valuing the company at $20 billion. This is one of many signals that digital assets are entering the mainstream, as adoption and institutional interest continue to rise across the globe.
