Why Gemini
Security, regulation and product breadth.
Gemini Credit Card
Gemini’s physical rewards card converts everyday spending into cryptocurrency rewards, with management and redemption handled inside the Gemini app. Eligible customers receive a metal card shipped to supported addresses. The product is positioned for people who want a seamless on‑ramp from fiat spending into long‑term crypto holdings without leaving the Gemini ecosystem.
Trading, Custody & Staking
The Gemini app consolidates spot trading, recurring buys, staking and institutional custody in one account. ActiveTrader provides advanced order types and charting, while custodial services emphasize regulated cold storage and insurance coverage. Users can automate purchases, transfer to the Gemini Wallet and participate in staking, all from a single interface.
