Falcon has become the first private aviation brand in the UAE to offer cryptocurrency payments through a strategic partnership with fintech companies Maaly Pay and Xerime.

Through this collaboration, Falcon's customers can now pay for the Dubai Al Maktoum International airport-based company's private jet charter, MRO, flight support and FBO services using crypto. The process is simple and fast: customers can just tap, scan or click ‘Pay with Crypto’ to complete their transaction within seconds, offering the same speed and ease as a credit card payment.

This move also responds to the growing demand for crypto payments worldwide. More and more people are choosing to use crypto in their daily lives and international transactions, and Falcon is making sure its clients have the option to pay in the way that best suits them.

Maaly Pay is a payment service provider licensed by the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre and it operates the first worldwide decentralised crypto payment ecosystem.

In Dubai, this system uses settlement partners that are also licensed by the DMCC and regulated by the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority. This secure framework ensures that Maaly Pay is one of the safest crypto payment ecosystems globally. For businesses in the UAE, all payments are settled in AED, ensuring full compliance with Central Bank mandates.

​“We are proud to partner with Falcon to bring a truly seamless and secure crypto payment solution to the private aviation industry,” says Khalifa AlJaziri, co-founder and managing director of Maaly Pay.

For Falcon's global clientele, the benefits are clear. Falcon Luxe private jet charter passengers gain the flexibility to confirm flights instantly from anywhere in the world. With Falcon Technic MRO, international operators and private jet owners can settle invoices quickly without currency complications. Falcon Flight Support partners enjoy faster cross-border transactions, and Falcon Elite FBO guests can experience the convenience of paying for ground handling through a globally recognised method.

“Our clients trust us with every detail of their journey, and payments should be no different,” shares Sultan Rashit Abdulla Rashit Al Shene, founder and chairman of Alex Group Investment. “By working with Maaly Pay and Xerime, we are giving them a payment option that is fast, simple and secure. This makes the whole experience smoother and easier for them, and it reflects how today's world is moving. More and more people are using crypto every day, and we are ready to serve them.”
