Paying for Booking.com from El Salvador
In El Salvador, fund Plu with bank transfer or stablecoins, then use your Plu Visa when merchants bill through international processors. Airlines, OTAs, and hotel chains often route payments through US or EU processors. If your card is treated as domestic-only, charges can fail — especially for holds, deposits, or same-day bookings. Even when a charge goes through, banks may add 2–5% on top of the exchange rate. A Visa built for cross-border billing — with balance ready before authorization holds — matches what global travel merchants expect.
