Many of our clients hold a meaningful part of their wealth in digital assets. Converting to fiat for every booking adds cost, delay and paperwork. Instacoins Concierge is part of the Instacoins group, which also runs crypto purchasing and OTC trading at instacoins.com, so paying in crypto is built into how we work.

What you can pay for

Anything we arrange: private aviation, villas, yacht charters, event access, dining, and sourcing of rare assets. You can pay in crypto, in fiat, or in a mix of both.

How a payment works

  • We confirm the booking and send you a proper invoice, with the amount in your chosen currency
  • You settle from your own wallet, for example in a stablecoin such as USDC
  • We confirm receipt and pay suppliers in the currency they need
  • You receive a final statement for your records

Stablecoins are popular for larger bookings because their value does not move between invoice and payment. Payments can be made on any day and at any hour, which matters when a jet or a table has to be confirmed tonight.

Larger transactions

For high-value purchases, such as a property, a collection or a long charter, our liquidity and crypto payments team can arrange conversion through the group's OTC desk, with confidential handling throughout.

A note on tax

Spending crypto can be a taxable event in many countries. We provide clear records of every transaction, and we recommend speaking to your own tax adviser about your situation.
