Interesting. I want to know how do I make the payment when I book a tour on astarexcursions.com? Is there a payment platform or manual p2p?

Also, can I see a sample of the NFT? Is it minted on Astar?

My thought is, if you can have a payment platform that accepts ASTR and the NFT minting dApp where you can use SushiTop’s technology, $170 is too little. Instead, it is worthy to put this project into dApp staking or join the Unstoppable Grant.

  1. Book a tour.
  2. Pay with ASTR.
  3. Customer receives a barcode, scan it and receive an NFT as proof of purchase.

Thank you for this suggestion. Right now I’m receiving the payments from customers personally after finishing each tour.

Develop this payment technology you share would be great, I’m very interested in build this.

That’s a great idea, Dennis! You should start by testing the business concept with regular payment methods like cash and cards first. This will help you to see if the idea is sustainable and gaining traction before you adn your team consider using cryptocurrencies. It’s important to have solid data and a strong business foundation. If your team is ready to take on this challenge, even if the initial phase doesn’t go as smoothly as you hope. Hope it will be going well and I can go to Cuba paying with $BAI or $ASTR sometime! :v:
