POV: first date. She orders everything on the menu.
The bill lands. You panic.
"Do you guys… do cashback?" "We do better."
1 in 100, the whole dinner comes back. Paid in seconds, on @solana.
Cashback is dead. 🪦
Our pitch for @colosseum's Crypto World's Fair 🎬👇
What a card issuer needs to offer free purchases with Fade: one call, added to the payment it already makes.
No prize pool to fund, and no draws to run. The issuer pays a cost set upfront with the odds, out of the budget it already spends on cashback. Our shared vault on @solana pays every win in full, and the issuer credits the card as it does a cashback.
Three winners in a row change nothing for the issuer.
The issuer sets the odds and can change or stop them at any time. Building or running a stablecoin card? Our DMs are open.

7/10. Not bad. Let's grab a few more points!

Card issuers ask us one thing before anything else: whether this is legal.
Most legal systems treat a draw as a lottery when the customer pays for the chance. With Fade, the customer never does. The issuer funds the chance from the rewards budget it already spends on cashback, and the customer pays the normal price.
A promotion, by design.
In the major markets we reviewed, that is a recognized form of sales promotion, run by the issuer like the ones it runs today. The formalities vary by country, from no permit in France or Germany to a free entry route in the US. No card data reaches Fade. The odds are published before launch, and anyone can check a draw on-chain.

How Fade works, from the cardholder's side.
You pay with your card, as usual, and pay nothing extra. The card's reward budget pays for a chance on that purchase, with odds that were public before you paid. Fade draws on-chain, and anyone can check the draw.
Lucky? It's all back. Your $40 dinner comes back as a credit on your card.
For the issuer, it's one call added to the payment it already makes, and our shared vault pays the win.

Why now: stablecoins moved $482B in payments between January and September, 45% more than a year earlier, according to Allium. Issuers moving to stablecoin cards can run their rewards on-chain too.

We're at the @hackerhouses in London until Thursday, then at @solana Breakpoint from the 15th. If you issue a card, and want to know more, just DM

A 2% cashback card spends 2% of every purchase on rewards. With Fade, the issuer decides what that 2% feels like.
It can give 1 purchase in 5 a 10% discount, so cardholders win often. Or it can give 1 purchase in 50 the whole purchase back, which happens less often but is the kind of win people tell their friends about.
Both cost about the same on average. The issuer sets the odds and can change them at any time, and our shared vault on @solana pays every win.
The two offers, worked through on a $40 purchase: docs.fade.finance/design-you…

Payments went on-chain. Rewards are next. The odds are public before you pay, the draw happens on-chain, and if you win, the money is in your wallet a few seconds later.
We're building Fade so any card, wallet or app on @solana can plug that in.

We keep going back and forth on the line that explains Fade
A: The reward layer for stablecoin payments
B: Fade turns cashback into free purchases
A sounds like infra and explains what Fade is, B sounds like an end-user use case. Which do you prefer? You've got a better one? drop it in the replies!
Live poll @hackerhouses :)
