Gemini has teamed up with Solana to launch the Gemini Solana Credit Card, the first credit card that lets users earn SOL on every dollar spent. More than just a rewards card, it automatically stakes earned SOL, allowing users to grow their rewards passively over time.

At 16 grams of matte metal and shimmering with Solana’s signature gradient, the limited-edition card is as sleek as it is functional. Available initially to US residents, it can be used worldwide with no foreign transaction fees.

Crypto Rewards Meet Real Utility

Unlike standard cash-back or airline-mile cards, the Gemini Solana Credit Card gives users a direct stake in the Solana ecosystem. When you make purchases in dollars, your rewards come in SOL, which is then staked automatically—essentially earning you interest just for holding it. Staking means locking up tokens to help secure a blockchain network and, in return, earning rewards. It’s like earning interest in a savings account, but powered by decentralized technology.

This model taps into a growing trend of crypto reward programs. A 2024 report from PYMNTS Intelligence found that 38% of US consumers who own crypto prefer earning digital assets through daily purchases rather than buying them directly. The Gemini Solana card meets that demand by turning everyday spending into an effortless way to accumulate and grow crypto holdings.

One real-world example highlights the appeal: imagine spending $100 at a grocery store. Instead of earning $1 back in cash, you might earn $1 worth of SOL. That SOL is instantly staked, so over time, your reward can grow—compounding the benefit of simple, everyday use.

More About Crypto Cards

Plasma announced a new partnership with Raincards to make its stablecoin, Plasma USD₮, spendable at over 150 million merchants worldwide. The company explained that while stablecoins have long been used mainly for trading and saving, their true potential depends on how easily people can use them in daily life.

Plasma is introducing crypto payment cards to bridge that gap. These cards turn digital dollars into a global payment tool usable anywhere traditional cards work.
