I compared 5 Solana crypto cards on the exact same purchase. Test #6 👇 Same store, same EUR 6.18, same minute. Here's the all-in cost after cashback: - @jup_mobile : $7.01 - @Backpack : $7.11 - @avici : $7.15 - @KASTxyz : $7.21 - @Solayer_Pay : $7.51 The best rate on the list lost. Backpack converted cheaper than everyone (1.1505), but Jupiter is the only card here paying real cashback, and 2% back was enough to take it Jupiter and Avici charged the exact same $7.15 before rewards, rates matching to the third decimal. Same Visa rails, different endings. KAST gave $0.10 cashback and charged a $0.10 low-value fee. Handed back exactly what it took. Small baskets get punished twice: KAST on low-value, Solayer with $0.20 on anything under $30. On a EUR 50 receipt those fixed fees mostly disappear. 7% spread on a grocery run Which Solana card is in your pocket?


The cheapest Solana crypto card in Europe. Part 2 👇 Cashback stripped out, just the conversion. What each card pulled in dollars for the same EUR 6.18: - Backpack : $7.11 - Jupiter : $7.15 - Avici : $7.15 - KAST : $7.31 - Solayer : $7.51 A 5.6% spread on pure FX and fees. Four of these five converted within $0.20 of each other. Strip the rewards and most Solana cards are the same card, @Backpack could be the new leader. Rate or rebate, which one do you actually pick a card for?
