KAST Path to Premium: Unlock 50% Off Your Card Upgrade This December

From December 1 to 25, 2025, eligible users can upgrade to a premium KAST card with an exclusive 50% discount code. It’s our way of saying thank you for being part of the community and for powering your everyday spending with KAST.

You’ve been putting in the swipes all year, and now the spotlight’s on you. If you’ve been spending with your KAST standard card, you’re just steps away from unlocking your first premium card.

Who’s Eligible?

You qualify for the 50% upgrade discount if:

  • You only have a standard KAST card (K, Solana, or Bitcoin Silver) in your account
  • You’ve spent at least 5,000 USD historically on that card

Meet these two conditions and you're in. No extra steps needed.

Why Upgrade to Premium?

Imagine grabbing your morning coffee, tapping your new premium card, and knowing you’re earning more rewards on the same routine you already have. Or heading out for dinner with friends and pulling out a card that feels solid and premium - the kind of card that makes the moment feel nicer and definitely worth showing off. That’s the difference you feel right away when you move into the premium tier.

Premium cards like X, Illuma, or Bitcoin Black are designed to elevate your everyday spending. You get higher rewards, a more refined design, and access to perks that only premium cardholders enjoy.

Your upgrade unlocks:

  • More robust point-earning potential
  • Priority access to campaigns and boosts
  • A premium metal feel that stands out
  • Added benefits exclusive to premium holders

If you’ve been thinking about making the move, now’s your moment.

How to Redeem Your Upgrade

Eligible users will receive a unique 50% discount code via email. Once you’ve got your code, simply choose the premium card you want in the app, apply the discount at checkout, and confirm your upgrade.

X, Illuma, or Bitcoin Black - whichever fits your style, your next-tier card is just a few taps away.

Your code remains valid until December 25, giving you the full holiday window to make your choice.

More About the Offer

A few key things to know about how this offer works:

  • If you already have a premium card on your account, this campaign won’t apply. Path to Premium is designed for users who are still on a standard card and are ready to take the next step.
  • If you have more than one standard card, we simply look at the one you’ve used the most. As long as one of your cards has reached $5,000 in total spending, you’re in. Hitting that amount is what unlocks the offer for you.
  • If you hit the $5,000 requirement at any point during the campaign, your discount code will be emailed to you automatically once your account updates.

And if you think you qualify but can’t find the email, just reach out to Concierge - we’re always here to help check your account.

Your Path to Premium Starts Now

You’ve already spent with consistency. You’ve already shown momentum. Now you get to unlock the card that matches it. This December, take the step up and experience KAST at its best.

Keep an eye out for your code and unlock your path to a premium, stablecoin-powered lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which cards can I upgrade to with this discount?
