News linked to both this project and an event.
Bitget Wallet announces that its crypto payment card, Bitget Wallet Card, has completed a major upgrade and will officially launch the "Assetback" mechanism on August 1, with the asset cashback rate simultaneously increased to 3%. This mechanism will be open to over 50 countries across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Asia-Pacific region. Cardholders can freely choose their preferred cashback assets, covering BTC, gold, tokenized US stocks (NVDA, TSLA, GOOGL, S&P 500), stablecoins, and more. The base asset cashback rate is 2%, while new users or users who reach the monthly spending threshold can unlock the 3% cashback tier. This upgrade breaks the traditional model where card swiping only returns cash/points, marking the transformation of Bitget Wallet Card services from consumption cashback to accumulation of appreciating assets. It turns daily consumption into an opportunity for RWA asset allocation, allowing users to achieve a new daily finance experience of "spend to build positions" without needing to open a brokerage account throughout the process or perform extra operations at checkout.
Bitget Wallet has officially launched full-token payment capabilities, allowing users to use thousands of cryptocurrencies beyond just USDT/USDC for card top-ups and QR code payments, eliminating the need for manual swaps or cross-chain transfers. This feature is now available in over 50 countries and regions across Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, and select emerging markets.The initial range of supported tokens includes mainstream assets such as USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, BNB, BGB, and POL; ecosystem and community tokens like SHIB; as well as regional stablecoins like BRZ (Brazilian Real-backed stablecoin) and XSGD (Singapore Dollar-backed stablecoin). This capability is powered by Onchain Payments Matrix and currently supports over 10 public chains, including Polygon, BNB Chain, Ethereum, and Base, with continuous expansion of supported tokens and networks underway.Through this move, Bitget Wallet aims to integrate on-chain assets into users' everyday consumption and payment scenarios, further enhancing the practical utility of cryptocurrencies and ensuring users can spend any token for real-world purchases.
Bitget Wallet has launched a Labor Day QR code payment campaign, running from April 28 to May 7, further driving the adoption of stablecoin payments in everyday consumption and travel scenarios across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. During the campaign, users who complete offline QR code payments using USDT or USDC will receive RLUSD cashback for each transaction. From May 1 to May 7, Bitget Wallet will randomly select one paying user per day to receive an additional 1,000 RLUSD cashback. To lower the barrier to first-time usage, Bitget Wallet will also airdrop XRP to eligible participants—serving as the account reserve required to activate RLUSD withdrawals. RLUSD is a compliant U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin issued by Ripple and regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS). This campaign marks Bitget Wallet’s first real-world consumer application following its integration of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) mainnet and onboarding of the RLUSD payment ecosystem at the end of March—and represents a key milestone in advancing Bitget Wallet’s Everyday Finance strategy.
