Solana-based wallet platform Solflare has announced the upcoming launch of the Solflare Card, a new self-custodial crypto payment solution designed to bridge digital assets with everyday purchases.
The Solflare Card aims to redefine how users spend crypto by eliminating traditional custodial barriers. Unlike many existing crypto cards, which require users to deposit funds with a third party, Solflare’s new card ensures that assets stay in users’ wallets until the moment of purchase.
The card will allow users to instantly spend $USDC and other supported Solana-based assets directly from their wallets, without delays or intermediaries. Transactions will be globally accepted wherever Mastercard is supported.
Self-custody has long been a core principle in the crypto community, especially following the collapses of platforms like FTX, which also offered custodial crypto cards. By keeping users in full control of their funds, the Solflare Card addresses lingering trust issues associated with centralized providers.
According to the Solflare team, key features of the card include:
The Solflare Card will enable users to seamlessly turn their crypto into real-world purchases. Whether it’s converting $SOL for vacations, $USDC for event tickets, or staking rewards for a fine dining experience, users can spend their digital assets just like traditional currency.
Initially, the card will be available in the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom. Solflare has indicated plans to expand availability to other regions shortly after launch.
A limited number of spots are currently open through a waitlist, giving early adopters a chance to secure their Solflare Card before wider distribution.
If you hold Solana-based assets and want an easier way to use them in daily life, the Solflare Card could be a game-changer. It offers instant spending while letting you maintain full control over your crypto — no custodians, no delays. As crypto adoption grows, self-custodial solutions like this aim to make digital assets as spendable as traditional money.
The solflare community was super excited and very curious about the availability of the card and it was super refreshing to see that Solflare’s official X account was answering people’s queries on the post itself; very rarely do we see that these days from projects.
