The Tratok Glossary: Speak Fluent Tratokian in Five Minutes
TRAT, passkeys, arrival passes, locked quotes, the vault model. Every term in the ecosystem, defined in plain language, in one place you can send to anyone.

Every good ecosystem grows a vocabulary, and vocabularies are only intimidating until somebody writes them down without the jargon. Consider this the official phrasebook: short, honest definitions of everything a new Tratokian will meet in their first month. Bookmark it, share it, and never nod politely at a term again.
The Token
TRAT
The travel token that powers the whole ecosystem, live on Ethereum and BNB Chain. Bookings settle in it, rewards pay out in it, and unlike loyalty points it is yours outright: spend it, send it, hold it, forever.
The wallet
Your built-in TRAT account: deposit, pay, earn, send, receive, with every movement listed in a ledger you can actually read. Guarded by your passkey at every step.
The locked quote
Your exact booking total, frozen for five minutes at checkout while you decide. Markets move; your number does not. The end of the price that climbs while you blink.
The earn-back
The TRAT a booking returns to your wallet, printed on the listing before you commit, like the Earn 480+ TRAT badge on featured stays. Not a promotion. The architecture.
The security
Passkey
Sign-in with your fingerprint or face instead of a password. Nothing to remember, nothing to phish, and the same key that authorises anything valuable in your account.
The vault model
The three-tier rule behind Tara and the wallet: reading is instant, actions are staged and shown to you in full, and moving value happens only when your passkey confirms it. Convenience up front, a vault at the back.
The journey
My Trips
The trip wallet: every stay, flight, car and table with its dates, reference and settled total, split into upcoming, past and cancelled. One shelf for the whole travelling life.
The arrival pass
The QR code at the bottom of every booking, under the words “show this when arriving”. One scan replaces the front-desk paperwork. Export PDF exists for the traditionalists.
Getting There
The routing built into each booking: type where you are starting from and the path to the property’s exact door draws itself. The last mile, made part of the product.
Favourites, Sendable Trips, the Explore map
The planning trio: the heart button that saves anything to one list, the trip page you share as a single link, and the glowing world map where it all gets discovered.
The people
Tara
The AI concierge, and travel’s only real one: wired into your live account, answering your trips and balance in seconds at any hour, acting only with your passkey’s blessing.
Tratokians
The community: ten thousand travellers across 140+ countries with profiles, friendships, a borderless translated feed, and the “friend lives here” signal that turns searches into reunions. You, shortly.
