The new product will also support Ripples stablecoin, which can now be used for US spot trading on Geminis crypto exchange platform.

More details on the matter were provided by Ripple and its dev team. They informed that the new credit card will allow simplified trading with no extra conversion fees.
Even users who are paying with the US dollar will be able to get some extra rewards back on their purchases in the following manner:
→ 4% XRP on gas, charging, and rideshare
→ ️ 3% XRP on dining
→ 2% XRP on groceries
→ 1% XRP on everything else
This is the second big partnership endeavor between the two US-based firms after the previous one, also announced in August, which saw Ripple assist in Geminis IPO attempts.
The Winklevoss-founder exchange filed an S-1 form with the US Securities and Exchange Commission a few weeks back to go public. Before that, Gemini entered a credit agreement with Ripple.
At first, the Brad Garlinghouse-led company provided an initial commitment of $75 million. The deal also allows Gemini to make further requests of no less than $5 million and no bigger than $150 million. Each loan must be secured by collateral.
