What is Maker?

Maker is a governance token of the MakerDAO and Maker Protocol. The MakerDAO and Maker Protocolare both based on the Ethereum blockchain and are decentralised organisations and software platforms that allow people to use the DAI stablecoin. The Maker token gives something that is similar to a voting share over the company that controls DAI. Anyone with a Maker token has voting rights over decisions and changes made to the platform.


If you hold Maker tokens, at Alternative Airlines, you can use Maker to buy flights by selecting it as a payment option at checkout.

Why should I buy flights using Maker?

Digital currencies are becoming more popular and widely with every passing year. Maker is a great way to pay for your flights if you hold tokens. If you have Maker tokens that you no longer wish to hold and want to sell, you can easily use it as a way to buy flights through Alternative Airlines instead.

Why can't I see Maker as a payment option at checkout?

In order to use Maker to pay for your flights, you must make sure that you're searching for flights using either GBP, EUR or USD (you can do this by using our currency selector, located on the top right-hand side of the screen in our flight search results). Once you get to the payment stage, you can then choose to pay with MKR rather than GBP, EUR or USD. However, unless you're searching in GBP, EUR or USD, MKR won't show as a cryptocurrency option.
