KAST is a card service that lets you spend crypto assets in everyday life. Its key feature is converting on-chain assets directly into in-store payments. See the KAST project page for more details.
Event Details
- Issue a KAST card (duration and fee unannounced)
- Spend using the card in eligible categories (travel, dining, shopping)
- Qualifying purchases automatically earn 5% cashback (capped at $100 per person)
Point allocation and tier conditions have not been published. I will not fill in the gaps with guesses.
To hit the $100 cap, you would need roughly $2,000 in eligible spending (5% x $2,000 = $100). When I tried it, the eligible categories were clearly listed on the official site.
Strategy and Precautions
- Minimum route: After issuing the card, simply route your regular dining and shopping spend into eligible categories to earn cashback
- Cost-effectiveness: Check upfront that issuance or annual fees do not exceed the cashback you would earn
- Sybil risk: Using multiple cards or accounts to bypass the cap may violate the terms of service
- Deadline crowding: Near September 30, heavy transaction volume could delay system processing
- When to skip it: If you rarely spend in eligible categories, or if card maintenance fees are high, this may not be worth it
