Gemini has expanded its crypto credit card lineup once again, this time teaming up with Solana. The new Solana Edition of the Gemini Credit Card lets you show off your love for Solana while earning up to 4% back in SOL on everyday purchases.
But it gets even better, because you can now automatically stake your Solana rewards, turning every coffee run into an opportunity to help secure the network and earn yield.
New Card Built for the Solana Community
The Solana Edition joins Gemini’s growing series of branded crypto cards, following the Bitcoin and XRP Editions. Designed with the Solana aesthetic, it’s more than a simple payment method. It’s a statement piece for fans of one of the fastest-growing blockchain ecosystems.
With the Solana card, you can earn easy cashback with zero effort:
- 4% back in SOL on gas, EV charging, and rideshare
- 3% back on dining
- 2% back on groceries
- 1% back on everything else
You can even unlock up to 10% back when shopping with Gemini’s partner merchants listed in the Gemini app.
Auto-Stake Rewards: Earn SOL While You Spend
Here’s where things get super exciting: auto-staking. For the first time, Gemini Credit Card holders can automatically stake their Solana rewards directly through Gemini.
That means each SOL you earn doesn’t just sit idle. It helps power the Solana network, validating transactions and maintaining decentralization while earning potential yield (up to 6.77% APR, according to Gemini).
You can opt in for auto-staking when applying for the card, or if you already have the Gemini Credit Card, simply select Solana as your reward currency and enable staking in your account.
Why Solana?
Solana has become one of the most active blockchains for developers, payments, and DeFi. Its speed and scalability have fueled an explosion of decentralized applications.
According to CoinMarketCap, Solana is currently the 6th biggest crypto asset, with a market cap of $104B. The SOL token has risen over 16% in the past year, and Gemini’s data shows that Solana rewards have outperformed many other crypto reward options—up 299% for holders who kept their rewards over the past year.
The new Solana Edition is Gemini’s way of aligning with a blockchain that’s not just fast, but future-focused.
Gemini’s Expanding Crypto Card Family
The Solana Edition follows Gemini’s XRP Edition, launched in August 2025 in partnership with Ripple. That release gave the XRP community a new way to earn up to 4% back in XRP, while Gemini also expanded access to Ripple USD (RLUSD)—a USD-backed stablecoin now integrated into U.S. trading pairs.
The XRP Edition quickly gained traction thanks to XRP’s impressive performance, with rewards growing over 450% for long-term holders. Together, the Bitcoin, XRP, and now Solana editions show Gemini’s commitment to offering tailored crypto experiences for passionate communities.
Cardholder Benefits: Beyond Crypto
The Gemini Credit Card isn’t just about digital assets, it’s designed for everyday value.
