Company profile
researched Aug 2026ether.fi provides a consumer account for holding, growing and spending crypto and cash. Through its website and mobile applications (available on the App Store and Google Play), users can buy crypto, tokenized stocks and metals, hold and trade more than 100 assets without a separate trading account, send money internationally via low-cost transfers, and borrow against holdings rather than selling them. Earning features are presented as rewards plus automated strategies applied to user assets.
Spending is handled through a payment card offering 3% cashback on online and in-store purchases, with cashback also available on trades of tokenized assets such as S&P 500 exposure, gold and BTC. The card and account are sold in tiers: Core (3% cashback, global travel and coverage benefits, $10K account balance protection), Luxe (3% cashback with a metal card, airport lounge passes and 10% discounts on travel and AI services), Pinnacle (3% cashback, premium card, unlimited airport lounge access and 20% discounts) and VIP (4% cashback, gold card, personal concierge, curated venture access and 30% discounts). Common benefits across tiers include auto rental coverage, purchase and price protection, Visa concierge and a global eSIM. The company advertises an insurance-backed account balance protection program of up to $500,000 per account, funded by ether.fi capital and an insurance policy from a licensed underwriter; the site states this program is not yet live and full terms are forthcoming. Security auditing is attributed to Halborn.
