How To Buy/Sell BTC and Other Cryptocurrencies Using Booking.com gift cards

Booking.com, a European hotel search engine, has introduced gift cards you can buy in any denomination for Europe’s top hotels. The company offers the cards in denominations of €25 or more for hotels mostly in Western Europe. A card holder can use their credit up to the amount of the card’s value and then pay the difference with their own form of payment. However, you can’t buy BTC directly via this gift card. If you want to buy BTC with Booking.com gift cards, you can do so by buying cryptocurrency from some P2P market such as Paxful.
