Earning crypto on everyday spending is nothing new, but how many are truly maximizing their returns?
Most users often settle for the cashback offered by their crypto card or rewards portals.
The real leap in quality is Reward Staking, when you make these two tools work in perfect synergy.
Today, we'll see how to turn every single purchase into a double income.
The Basics
First Step
First, choose the right crypto card for you. I've covered so many in my blog, but we can simplify and divide them into two broad categories:
- Web3-Native Cards: If you don't want to give up custody of your private keys, this is your ecosystem. Solutions like Metamask Card, Gnosis Pay, and the legendary Bleap offer direct connections to DeFi.
- Exchange-Based and Hybrid Cards: If you're looking for ease of use and aggressive cashback (tied to levels, plans, or staking), the CeFi giants are what you need.
Here, we find Deblock, Crypto.com, Bybit, and many others.
Second Step
This is where the multiplier comes into play. Instead of navigating directly to the e-commerce site, go to your favorite crypto cashback portal. I also recently wrote an article about these where I discuss the best on the market, like Satsback and Lolli, which have partnered with thousands of retailers like eBay, Amazon, AliExpress, Booking.com, etc.
By activating a small extension or downloading and navigating their apps, you'll get cashback in cryptocurrencies, such as BTC and others.
Synergy
Practical Example
- Action: You access a portal, such as Satsback or Lolli, and search for an electronics store where you want to buy that €1,000 smartphone that offers 4% cashback.
You click on their link and it takes you to the store.
- Payment: Checkout, enter your crypto card details, which we assume offers 2% cashback, and pay.
- Result: The card immediately gave you 2% cashback on the €1,000 you spent, which is €20.
The portal you used, Satsback or Lolli, takes a few more days and gives you 4% cashback, which is another €40.
Total? You saved €60 on a purchase you would have made anyway.
