Rain Unveils Native Support for Solana, Tron, and Stellar

In a significant move towards enhancing the functionality of its platform, Rain, a global card issuance platform powered by stablecoins, has announced that it now supports Solana, Tron, and Stellar natively. This integration expands the multi-chain support that Rain offers, allowing partners to launch stablecoin-backed card programs across multiple blockchains with ease.

The recent announcement, which came on May 29, 2025, emphasizes Rain's commitment to building a modern financial infrastructure that is not only more accessible but also programmable and global in nature. With these new integrations, Rain enables its partners to utilize the high-performance infrastructure of Solana, the stablecoin-rich ecosystem of Tron, and the remittance-oriented network of Stellar to swiftly roll out compatible card programs. This means that stablecoins can now be applied to real-world payments, encompassing consumer spending, B2B transactions, cross-border disbursements, and platform payments.

Rain stands out as the only Visa Principal Member that empowers its partners to deploy and manage card programs across multiple blockchains simultaneously. This feature, which is available out of the box, supports both custodial and non-custodial wallets. As a result, it streamlines the processes for exchange platforms, fintech firms, neobanks, and other financial services providers, allowing for the instant use of stablecoins at over 150 million merchants accepting Visa worldwide.

Charles Yoo-Naut, Rain's Chief Technology Officer and Co-founder, expressed that this development is part of Rain's ongoing dedication to offering solutions that meet the evolving needs of partners. “By introducing native support for Solana, Tron, and Stellar, we are further embedding our solution into various ecosystems, empowering our partners to create scalable, stablecoin-based card programs that enhance payments for everyone,” he stated.

Case Studies: Real-World Applications

One illustrative example of this integration in action is KAST, a neobank app developed on the Solana blockchain. KAST collaborates with Rain to provide branded cards that enable users to spend stablecoins directly from their wallets. Solana's fast and cost-effective architecture allows KAST to deliver smooth, real-time payment experiences to its expanding user base on a global scale.

Another case is Offramp, a fintech platform built on Tron that works with Rain on its card program. Offramp's goal is to offer greater financial freedom to individuals around the world, focusing particularly on Latin America. With a Visa card issued by Rain, users can spend digital dollars anywhere Visa is accepted, effectively bridging the gap between on-chain assets and the real economy.

These integrations come in response to the rising demand for platforms seeking to simplify spending with stablecoins and broaden access to cards within various ecosystems. Rain has previously supported networks such as Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon. This expansion further solidifies its leadership in providing native multi-chain card infrastructure for stablecoins.

On the funding front, Rain recently raised a Series A round of $24.5 million in March, reflecting a phase of rapid growth for the company. Today's announcement is seen as another strategic step in enhancing Rain's capabilities, enabling them to allocate capital towards supporting new partners, increasing global reach, and meeting the surging demand for programmable payments worldwide.
