Gemini has unveiled its Solana Edition Credit Card, marking another major step in blending crypto rewards with real-world spending. The card allows users to earn and automatically stake Solana (SOL) rewards, offering yields of up to 6.77%, with bonus rewards available through Gemini’s Vault Rewards program.

A Next-Gen Credit Card for Solana Enthusiasts

The Solana Edition Card lets users earn up to 4% back in SOL on purchases, with higher rewards—up to 10%—available from select merchants. Users can opt into auto-staking directly within their Gemini accounts, making it possible to compound rewards without moving funds to third-party wallets.

The card’s design incorporates Solana’s sleek, futuristic branding, reflecting the growing intersection of blockchain innovation and everyday payments. Gemini aims to simplify crypto earning and staking by automating the process, encouraging passive accumulation of digital assets through daily use

Building on the Success of the XRP Edition

Gemini’s previous XRP Edition Credit Card became popular among retail users seeking to earn XRP on purchases with no annual fees or foreign transaction costs. The success of that rollout set the stage for expanding into other major crypto ecosystems, starting with Solana.

By linking rewards directly to staking, Gemini has created a seamless path for users to earn yield on their purchases—a feature that remains rare in the crypto credit card space.

Strengthening Gemini’s Global Strategy

The Solana Edition launch aligns with Gemini’s broader expansion efforts. The company recently secured a MiFID II license in Malta, enabling crypto derivatives trading across the EU. Meanwhile, co-founders Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss have stepped up political engagement, donating $21 million in Bitcoin to support pro-crypto policies in the U.S.

Adding to its momentum, Nasdaq’s $50 million investment ahead of Gemini’s upcoming IPO signals growing institutional confidence in the exchange.

Gemini’s Solana Edition Credit Card bridges the gap between blockchain utility and consumer finance. With automatic staking, flexible rewards, and deep Solana integration, it positions Gemini as one of the few exchanges offering genuine on-chain value through everyday spending.
