On August 25, 2025, Gemini unveiled its XRP Edition credit card, tailored for crypto enthusiasts eager to earn XRP with everyday purchases. While the card’s core functionality mirrors existing Gemini cards—offering rewards in Bitcoin or 50+ cryptocurrencies—it features a bold design for the XRP Army to showcase their allegiance. As Gemini notes, users can swap rewards anytime, adding flexibility to loyalty.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse celebrated the launch on X, tweeting, “An XRP rewards credit card out in the world?! What a time to be alive, XRP family…”

Beyond aesthetics, the card’s release echoes the ethos of Depin—decentralized physical infrastructure networks that use token incentives to power real-world systems. By rewarding users with XRP, Gemini reinforces the token’s utility, bridging digital finance with tangible value. It’s a promising signal for Ripple’s mission and the broader blockchain movement toward solving real-world problems.
