Reap and Collinson Link Crypto Cards to Priority Pass Lounges
Reap and Collinson International have partnered to extend Priority Pass airport lounge access to stablecoin and crypto cardholders worldwide.
A new partnership between Singapore-based fintech Reap and travel benefits specialist Collinson International will grant eligible stablecoin and cryptocurrency cardholders access to Priority Pass' global network of more than 1,900 airport lounges and travel experiences, the companies announced Monday.
The agreement marks a notable convergence of the digital asset ecosystem and premium travel infrastructure, an area historically dominated by traditional bank-issued credit cards. By connecting crypto-native payment products to one of the travel industry's most recognized lounge access programs, the deal signals growing institutional confidence in stablecoin-linked card products as viable alternatives to conventional financial instruments.

Reap, which operates as a global financial technology company headquartered in Singapore, serves customers who manage finances through digital assets. The Collinson tie-up effectively closes a gap that has kept crypto cardholders from the kind of ancillary travel perks that premium bank customers take for granted, potentially making digital-asset-based cards more competitive in the broader consumer payments market.
The partnership also reflects a wider industry trend: crypto and stablecoin issuers are increasingly pursuing real-world utility features — from merchant acceptance to travel rewards — to drive card adoption beyond speculative use cases. Analysts have noted that tangible lifestyle benefits can be decisive for consumers weighing whether to shift spending to crypto-backed products.
Terms of the revenue arrangement between Reap and Collinson were not disclosed. Continue reading at All Financial Services & Investing.
