Quick answer
Can I pay for a hotel with Litecoin (LTC)?
Yes, with LTC sent on the Litecoin network, never as an LTC token on BNB Smart Chain. The LTC amount and its rate are locked for 30 minutes. StaySats, a hotel booking site paid only in crypto, credits it in US dollars after 6 confirmations. Each stay is then held, not charged, until the hotel confirms.

What should I know about LTC before I pay a hotel?
Litecoin is a separate blockchain whose transactions and fees work like Bitcoin's. Litecoin addresses start with L (legacy), M or 3 (script) or ltc1 (native SegWit). The fee depends on the size of the transaction, not on the amount. We credit a Litecoin top-up after 6 confirmations, and the LTC is converted to US dollars at the rate locked on the payment page.
How do I send LTC on Litecoin for a top-up?
Start a top-up in your account and pick Litecoin (LTC). Then:
Choose LTC on the Litecoin network
On an exchange, pick LTC and the Litecoin network, not an LTC token on BNB Smart Chain.
Paste the address and the exact LTC amount
Copy both from the payment page, keeping every decimal of the amount.
Send within the 30 minutes shown
The amount and its rate are locked for 30 minutes. Send it in one transaction.
Which network must I use to send LTC?
Use the Litecoin network, and nothing else.
What does a LTC top-up cost?
Litecoin fees work like Bitcoin fees. They depend on the size of the transaction and on demand on the network, not on the amount you send. The fee is paid in LTC. The hotel price is the same in every coin. We give no network fee figure until we have measured one.
Does my LTC top-up keep its value until I book?
The LTC price moves. The payment page locks the LTC amount and its rate for 30 minutes; after 6 confirmations your balance is in US dollars.
Which wallet or exchange can I send LTC from?
Send from a Litecoin wallet or from an exchange that offers withdrawals on the Litecoin network.
On an exchange, pick the Litecoin network. Do not pick an LTC token on another chain, such as BNB Smart Chain (BEP-20).

Paying for a hotel with Litecoin (LTC): FAQ
Why does Litecoin need 6 confirmations?
It is our crediting rule for Litecoin: six blocks on top of your transaction, then the amount is credited to your balance in US dollars. The usual time for each network is on the pay with crypto page.
My wallet shows a Litecoin address starting with 3. Is it valid?
Litecoin first used the same script-address prefix as Bitcoin (3) and later moved to M; both can point to the same address. For a top-up, always copy the address shown on the payment page and send LTC on the Litecoin network.
Can I get a refund in LTC?
No. Withdrawable amounts are paid in USDT (TRC-20 or ERC-20) or USDC (ERC-20). You can also keep them on your balance for another stay.
Is Litecoin accepted by many crypto travel sites?
Several list it. As of October 2026, per their own pages, Travala, Travorio and LockTrip list LTC among their coins, and Destinia lists it in its structured data. Networks and refund forms differ from site to site: compare them in the crypto travel seller registry.
