How does Solid Rewards work?

How Solid Rewards works: Core, Prime and Ultra tiers, how to upgrade with a subscription or FUSE lock (with screenshots), the 12 October amount change, points, card cashback, category cashback, Yield Boost, referrals and FAQs.

Solid Rewards is our loyalty program. It has three tiers, Core, Prime and Ultra, with better cashback, category cashback, Yield Boost and lower fees at each level. You also earn points for the things you already do in Solid.

Joining Solid Rewards

To join, open the Rewards tab in Solid and opt in. Your points start counting from the moment you opt in, so opting in is the first step.

If you have used Solid before opting in, your earlier activity is recognized. See "Early members" below.

How you earn points

Every dollar you hold and every dollar you move with Solid earns you points:

  • Hold money: All your balances count. Every $1 in your savings vault or on your card earns 1 point every hour. This applies to all three vaults: USDC, ETH, and FUSE.

  • Spend: 1 point for every $1 you spend on your Solid card. You also earn cashback on card spending.

  • Swap: 1 point for every $1 you swap in the app.

Inviting friends earns FUSE rewards rather than points (see "Referral rewards" below).

Points no longer unlock tiers, but keep earning them. They are about to matter more than ever, and we will share more soon. Your points balance is always visible in the Rewards tab.

Tiers

Every member starts at Core. You upgrade to Prime with an annual subscription or by locking FUSE, and to Ultra by locking FUSE (see "Upgrading to Prime and Ultra" below). Your current tier and what the next tier unlocks are shown in the Rewards tab.

Prime vs Ultra membership benefits: 4% and 5% on every purchase, 10% and 20% on AI, streaming and music, 8% and 10% on rides, 10% on airlines for Ultra, Yield Boost +2% and +3%, access today and after 12 October, annual value up to $1,400 and $3,150

Upgrading to Prime and Ultra

There are two ways to reach Prime and one way to reach Ultra.

Annual subscription (Prime only). Pay $199 per year from your USDC balance and Prime is active immediately for 12 months. It renews automatically every 12 months; you can turn off renewal in the app at any time.

FUSE lock (Prime and Ultra). Lock 50,000 FUSE for Prime or 400,000 FUSE for Ultra. Locking means your FUSE is deposited into Savings and held for 12 months. It stays in your account and you can see it in the app, together with its unlock date. Locked FUSE keeps earning yield and points for the whole period. Your tier is active for as long as the lock is. You cannot withdraw locked FUSE before the unlock date. When the lock ends, your FUSE becomes available again and you can lock it for another 12 months to keep your tier, or withdraw it.

Amounts change on 12 October 2026. From that date the FUSE lock becomes 70,000 FUSE for Prime and 600,000 FUSE for Ultra. Anyone who locks before 12 October keeps the current amount for the full 12 months of their lock. The subscription price does not change.

Step by step

1. Open the Rewards tab and tap Explore tiers. You can also tap the Join Prime Club card at the bottom of the Rewards tab.

2. Pick Prime or Ultra and tap Upgrade. Each tier page lists its benefits and what it takes to unlock it.

3. Choose how to upgrade. For Prime, pick Cash to pay the $199 annual fee from your USDC balance, or Locked FUSE to lock the FUSE amount shown. Ultra is Locked FUSE only. The screen shows the FUSE APY your lock keeps earning and the 12 month lock duration.

4. Short on FUSE or USDC? Tap Top up. You get three ways to add funds: Crypto (transfer from any wallet or exchange, or connect a wallet for a one-click deposit), Cash (bank transfer or local ramps) and Buy FUSE (buy FUSE with USDC directly in the app).

Deposit with: Crypto, Cash or Buy FUSE

To send FUSE from another wallet or exchange, choose Crypto, then Show deposit address, and select FUSE on the Fuse chain. This is your Solid wallet address, also shown under Settings, Account. Send at least the minimum shown on screen (1,254 FUSE at the time of writing). Deposits below the minimum are not credited or refunded.

Receive crypto: Show deposit address or Connect wallet

5. Confirm. Your FUSE is deposited into Savings and locked in one transaction. Your tier is active immediately and the unlock date is shown in the app.

Where to get FUSE

The two best routes:

  • In the app (simplest). Deposit USDC, or cash via your bank or a local ramp, then tap Buy FUSE to swap it for FUSE. No addresses or networks to manage.

  • On an exchange (deepest liquidity). Buy FUSE on MEXC, then withdraw it on the Fuse network (not Ethereum ERC20) to your Solid wallet address from Settings, Account. This is the address to use if you want to upgrade your tier: once the FUSE lands, lock it from the Rewards tab.

MEXC withdrawal screen: select FUSE and the FUSE network, not Ethereum ERC20

Do not send exchange withdrawals to the FUSE vault address. The FUSE savings vault has its own direct deposit address at app.solid.xyz/savings?vault=fuse, which only accepts WFUSE (wrapped FUSE). Exchanges send native FUSE. Send it to your wallet address, then lock it for a tier or deposit it into the vault from the app. See How to get FUSE into Solid.

FUSE that you hold in Savings without locking it earns yield and points, but does not unlock a tier on its own. The current amounts are always shown in the app.

Already Prime or Ultra?

If you locked FUSE or subscribed: nothing changes for you. Your amount and your terms stay as they are for your full 12 months, and you get the new category cashback and Yield Boost from today.

If you reached your tier before 25 September 2026, by earning points or by holding FUSE in Savings: your tier stays active with its benefits, including the new ones. We will give you at least 30 days' notice before anything changes for you. If you want to secure your tier for a full 12 months, lock your FUSE in the Rewards tab before 12 October 2026 and you keep the current amount (50,000 or 400,000 FUSE) for your whole lock.

If you already pay for subscriptions with your Solid card: they keep earning the previous subscription cashback (25% at Prime, 50% at Ultra) for as long as you keep paying them. See "Category cashback" below.

Yield Boost

Yield Boost adds extra APY on top of the base rate your savings already earn: +2% at Prime on your first $10,000 in savings and +3% at Ultra on your first $25,000. The boost is calculated on your savings across all vaults combined (USDC, ETH and FUSE), not per vault. It accrues daily, you claim it from the banner at the top of the vault whenever you like, and it is paid in soFUSE, so it keeps earning yield and points once claimed. There is nothing to activate: as soon as you hold Prime or Ultra, the boost applies. Like all Solid yield, boosted rates are variable and not guaranteed.

Card cashback

Cashback is paid in USDC on every eligible card purchase, at your tier rate: 3% at Core, 4% at Prime and 5% at Ultra, up to a monthly cap of $50, $100 or $200. Cashback is credited 14 days after the transaction settles, and you can see the cashback earned on each purchase in its transaction details. See How cashback works and how to spend it and Cashback exclusions.

Category cashback (Prime and Ultra)

Prime and Ultra members earn a higher rate at a list of popular merchants, paid with the Solid card. Prime has four categories, Ultra has five:

Category cashback for Prime and Ultra: AI, streaming and music 10% on Prime and 20% on Ultra, rides 8% and 10%, airlines 10% on Ultra only, with the eligible merchants in each category
  • AI: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Cursor, Midjourney, GitHub Copilot. 10% at Prime, 20% at Ultra.

  • Streaming: Netflix, Disney+, YouTube Premium, Prime Video, Max, Apple TV+, Paramount+. 10% at Prime, 20% at Ultra.

  • Music: Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Deezer. 10% at Prime, 20% at Ultra.

  • Rides: Uber, Grab, Gojek (rides only), Bolt, DiDi / 99, Cabify, FreeNow, Lyft, Yandex Go and local taxi apps. 8% at Prime, 10% at Ultra.

  • Airlines (Ultra only): Emirates, Qatar Airways, Turkish Airlines, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Etihad, British Airways, Lufthansa, Air France, KLM, United and Delta, booked directly on the airline's own website or app. 10%.

A few rules apply:

  • The category rate replaces your regular rate on those purchases; the two do not add up.

  • One purchase per category per month. In each category, the first eligible purchase of the calendar month earns the category rate. Further purchases in that category during the same month earn your regular card rate. With 4 categories at Prime and 5 at Ultra, that is up to 4 or 5 category purchases a month. Category cashback also counts toward your tier's monthly cashback cap.

  • Merchants qualify by name. Subscriptions billed through PayPal, Google Play or the App Store, flights bought through travel agencies or booking sites, and hotel bookings earn your regular card cashback instead.

  • Refunds. If a purchase is refunded or charged back, the cashback is removed, even after payout.

Already paying for subscriptions with your Solid card? Subscriptions you were paying before 5 October 2026 keep earning the previous subscription cashback, 25% at Prime and 50% at Ultra, under the same one-per-category-per-month rule and capped at $50 per payment, for as long as you keep paying them with your card. Any subscription you start from 5 October 2026 earns the category rates above.

Category cashback is paid in USDC, counts toward your tier's monthly cap, and lands in your Savings where it starts earning yield the moment it arrives. The list of merchants may be updated with notice in the Rewards Terms.

Referral rewards

Inviting friends pays both of you $25 in FUSE:

  • Your friend earns $25 in FUSE after signing up with your referral link, activating their card, spending $150 on everyday purchases at 3 or more different shops with $10 or more at each within 30 days, and making one more purchase of $10 or more before the reward is paid.

  • You earn $25 in FUSE for each friend who completes those steps, up to 50 rewards in total.

Transfers, wallet top-ups, gift cards, game credit, gambling and other cashback exclusions do not count toward the $150, and some rewards are reviewed before payout. Rewards are credited to your Savings, where FUSE earns yield and points, and can be locked toward a tier upgrade. Referrals made before September 8, 2026 are paid under the previous amounts ($15 in USDC each). See Refer a friend: how to earn $25 in FUSE for the full rules.

Deposit limits

Crypto deposit fees are the same at every tier: free on Fuse, 0.1% on Ethereum and 0.03% on other networks. Bank deposits carry a 0.5% fee at Core and 0.25% at Prime, and are free at Ultra. First party bank deposits are unlimited. Third party bank deposits are capped at $4,000 per transfer.

Early members

If you used Solid before Rewards launched, your early activity was recognized with a points head start. You also hold Founding Member status, a permanent recognition of being an early supporter.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to do anything to join?

Yes. Open the Rewards tab and opt in. Points start counting once you opt in.

When do my points start counting?

As soon as you opt in. Activity before you opt in does not earn ongoing points, though early members receive a head start (see above).

Do my old points disappear?

No. Your points stay on your account and keep growing. They no longer move you up a tier, but they are about to matter more than ever, and we will share more soon.

Do I still need points to move up a tier?

No. Tiers are unlocked with a subscription or a FUSE lock. Points are still earned on everything you do in Solid and are about to matter more than ever. More on that soon.

Do my ETH and FUSE deposits earn points?

Yes. Deposits in all three vaults, USDC, ETH, and FUSE, earn points at the same rate of 1 point per hour per $1.

Does the FUSE I hold earn rewards?

Yes. FUSE in Savings earns yield and points just like USDC and ETH. And if you lock 50,000 FUSE for 12 months you unlock Prime, or 400,000 FUSE for Ultra (70,000 and 600,000 from 12 October 2026).

Does my card balance earn points?

Yes. Your card balance earns points at the same rate as your vaults: 1 point every hour for every $1 held. For example, holding $1,000 on your card for 7 days earns 168,000 points.

How do I upgrade to Prime or Ultra?

Open the Rewards tab, tap Explore tiers, pick Prime or Ultra and tap Upgrade. For Prime, choose Cash ($199 a year) or Locked FUSE (50,000 FUSE for 12 months). For Ultra, lock 400,000 FUSE for 12 months. If you are short, tap Top up to deposit crypto or cash, or buy FUSE in the app. Your tier is active immediately. From 12 October 2026 the FUSE amounts are 70,000 and 600,000. See "Step by step" above.

What happens when my FUSE lock ends?

After 12 months your FUSE is unlocked and available to withdraw or lock again. Your tier stays active as long as a lock is in place. The yield and points your FUSE earned while locked are yours to keep.

Can I withdraw locked FUSE early?

No. Locked FUSE is held until the unlock date shown in the app. If you want flexibility, the annual Prime subscription unlocks Prime without locking any FUSE.

How much extra yield does Yield Boost add?

+2% extra APY at Prime on your first $10,000 in savings and +3% at Ultra on your first $25,000, calculated across all your vaults combined. It accrues daily, is claimable from the vault screen and is paid in soFUSE. Rates are variable and not guaranteed.

What happens on 12 October 2026?

The FUSE lock amounts rise to 70,000 FUSE for Prime and 600,000 FUSE for Ultra. If you lock before 12 October, your amount stays at 50,000 or 400,000 for your full 12 month lock. The $199 subscription does not change.

How is the referral reward calculated?

Your friend earns $25 after signing up with your link, activating their card, spending $150 on everyday purchases at 3 or more shops with $10 or more at each within 30 days, and making one more purchase of $10 or more before the reward is paid. You earn $25 per friend who completes those steps. Transfers, top-ups, gift cards and other cashback exclusions do not count, and some rewards are reviewed before payout. Both rewards are paid in FUSE to your Savings, converted from USD at the time of payout. Referrals made before September 8, 2026 are paid $15 each in USDC under the previous amounts.

Which merchants earn category cashback?

AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, Cursor, Midjourney, GitHub Copilot), streaming (Netflix, Disney+, YouTube Premium, Prime Video, Max, Apple TV+, Paramount+) and music (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music, Deezer) at 10% for Prime and 20% for Ultra; rides (Uber, Grab, Gojek, Bolt, DiDi / 99, Cabify, FreeNow, Lyft, Yandex Go, local taxi apps) at 8% for Prime and 10% for Ultra; and 12 airlines booked direct at 10% for Ultra. Purchases billed through PayPal, Google Play or the App Store, and flights booked through agencies or booking sites, earn your regular rate.

I was already getting 25% or 50% back on a subscription. Does that stop?

No. Subscriptions you were paying with your Solid card before 5 October 2026 keep earning 25% (Prime) or 50% (Ultra), under the previous rules, for as long as you keep paying them with your card. Only subscriptions started from 5 October 2026 earn the new category rates.

I pay for two AI tools. Do both get category cashback?

Not in the same month. The first AI purchase of the calendar month earns the AI rate (10% at Prime, 20% at Ultra); the second earns your regular 4% or 5%. The same applies in each category: one purchase per category per month at the category rate. Prime has 4 categories and Ultra 5, so that is up to 4 or 5 category purchases a month, within your tier's monthly cap.

How much cashback can I earn?

Up to your tier's monthly cap: $50 at Core, $100 at Prime, and $200 at Ultra, across regular and category cashback combined. Regular purchases earn your tier rate (3%, 4% or 5%) until you reach the cap. The first eligible purchase in each category every month earns the category rate; further purchases in that category earn your regular rate.

Are there any fees?

The card is free at every tier: no monthly fee, no card fee and no top-up fee. The Prime subscription is optional; the card is free whether or not you subscribe. Crypto deposits are free on Fuse and cost 0.1% on Ethereum and 0.03% on other networks, the same at every tier. A small number of fees depend on your tier: bank deposits, swaps and buying crypto cost 0.5% at Core, 0.25% at Prime and nothing at Ultra; FX conversion on non-USD card purchases costs 1% at Core, 0.5% at Prime and nothing at Ultra. You always see the exact fee in the app before you confirm. Full details are in Solid fees and limits: the complete overview.

Is the Solid card available in my country?

The card is available in eligible regions only. See "Where is Solid available?" for the current list.
