Abstract

Purpose - The paper summarizes the theoretical and empirical knowledge on the use and transactions of cryptocurrencies in tourism and examines the use of cryptocurrencies as a means of payment in Croatian tourism. Methodology/Design/Approach – The empirical research examines the attitudes and opinions of tourists in Croatian tourism regarding their willingness to pay with cryptocurrencies while travelling. Findings - The research results show a low level of payment for tourism services with cryptocurrencies in the Republic of Croatia, but a fairly open acceptance of cryptocurrencies as a means of payment for tourism services. The study found no correlation between the profile of respondents and the motivation to pay with cryptocurrencies. However, a correlation was found between the age of the respondents and the intention to pay, but there were no statistically significant differences in the intention to pay according to the age group of the respondents. No correlation was also found between motivation and intention to pay with cryptocurrencies. Originality of the research – The study can serve as a basis for further research on the use of cryptocurrencies in tourism. It helps to expand knowledge about the motivation and intention to use cryptocurrencies on a tourism trip and to understand tourists’ behavior.
