Aditus, the world’s no. 1 luxury access platform for crypto-affluents, has signed an exclusive partnership with Sunseeker Thailand to enable the purchase of luxury yachts using cryptocurrencies.

The partnership will see Sunseeker Thailand accepting cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Aditus tokens as payment for their luxury vessels. Payments will be powered through Aditus Pay, a proprietary crypto-to-fiat payment gateway which integrates a “token-back” rewards component in Aditus tokens for Aditus VIPs.

Sunseeker Thailand, based in Phuket, has been the sole authorized dealer for Sunseeker Yachts in the region for the past decade. They also have a dedicated team of after-sales, maintenance and support staff. With satellite offices located at the renowned Ocean Marina Yacht Club in Sattahip as well as the scenic island of Koh Samui, Sunseeker Thailand is strategically placed at the heart of a burgeoning yachting community. And the group’s impressive fleet can be relied upon to cater to the seafaring needs of HNWIs, celebrities, and the top echelon of high-society worldwide.

This quintessential British marquee was established in 1969 and has been redefining recreational yachting for almost half-a-century. Most notably, Sunseeker’s luxury motor yachts were featured prominently in four consecutive James Bond films, starting with the Pierce Brosnan-starring The World is Not Enough (1999) and almost a decade later with Daniel Craig in Quantum of Solace (2008). Synonymous with sophisticated designs and performance, Sunseeker’s offerings have always pushed the boundaries of luxury maritime craftsmanship.

“We are delighted to be associated with Aditus,” says Craig Murphy, Managing Director of Sunseeker Thailand. “Implementing Aditus Pay as our crypto service provider will give us a head start and a competitive edge in adapting to a changing market space. We are keen to serve a community of new wealth and we have faith that Aditus will play a key role in helping us connect to crypto-affluents worldwide.”

Remarking on the collaboration, Aditus co-founder and CEO Julian Peh says: “This is an exciting news and we are thrilled to be working with Sunseeker Thailand as part of our growing roster of luxury merchants under the Aditus Alliance. As a leading name in the yachting industry focused on innovation and development, our partnership with Sunseeker Thailand is a perfect fit as we continue to ride the wave of possibilities that Blockchain and cryptocurrencies present in the near future.”
