Last year, we introduced sSOL and sUSD as Solayer’s flagship yield bearing assets, designed to build out a suite of integrated products on top of our hardware-accelerated infiniSVM. 

Today, we’re thrilled to release Emerald Card, our most consumer-friendly product to date. Global and fully on-chain, it supports USDC deposits and enables real-world spending – like a savings and checking account, but on-chain! 


Emerald Card on InfiniSVM – Visa-like payment settlement 


Blockchain transforms global payment rails. Enabled by Solayer InfiniSVM – a hardware-accelerated SVM L1 – Emerald Card achieves Visa-like throughput, but faster, more accessible, and with wider cross-border reach. 


Emerald Card is the first product line on top of InfiniSVM, which is currently benchmarking at over 300,000 TPS on internal prod-net. Emerald Card processes IRL transactions on-chain and spends assets on-chain, starting with USDC on Solana, and soon across all SVM and EVM chains (10 chains). 

Emerald Card – your on-chain checking and savings account

Users who deposit into Emerald Card can opt-in to sUSD, a 4-5% Treasury-backed stablecoin, or spend IRL globally at more than 150 million merchants, across 200 countries, even in the United States. 

Note: sUSD allows you to earn direct USDC by simply holding sUSD in any amount, even $5! sUSD is instantly mintable and redeemable, as well as fully transferable on-chain. 


Entryway to debanking 


Emerald card offers a direct deposit of USDC, direct onramping, shop to a global network of merchants, as well as direct cash withdrawals at any ATM machine – all without depending on any centralized entities to custody assets. 


Scenario: You can deposit $100 USDC in Emerald Card (or onramp), spend USDC in any Starbucks in America or Spain or Singapore or any of the other 200 countries and territories supported by Emerald Card, and withdraw $30 in CAD in Canada – all instantaneously. 


Crypto-native reward programs 


Exclusive Perks and Status


Emerald Card is spending off-chain with on-chain assets, as well as earning on-chain rewards: 

  • Upcoming token launches / incentive programs of leading projects and protocols

  • Special roles, perks, and points from partner campaigns

  • Priority customer support

  • Early previews and beta testing of upcoming Solayer products

Point System Overview


With every purchase you will earn Emerald Rewards. As you participate in Emerald Reward campaigns, your points are tallied up to receive reward tokens based on the overall points. 


Solayer partners with different protocols to offer exclusive rewards for Emerald Card holders – the more you spend in real life, the more on-chain rewards you earn. 


User Scenario:
Protocol A launches an Emerald Rewards campaign. You can opt in via the dashboard, earning points per dollar spent towards that campaign—and any others you’ve joined. At the end, rewards are distributed based on each user’s points relative to the total earned by all participants.
