Fluz announced on December 16, 2025 that BitJem gift cards could be redeemed for Solana’s SOL token. The addition expanded the cryptocurrency choices described for cards sold through the rewards platform, alongside BTC, ETH, USDT and USDC. [S01]

A familiar purchase format, a separate redemption process

The announcement described buying a BitJem gift card on Fluz, then creating a BitJem account, completing verification and redeeming the card. Fluz advertised cashback of up to 4% at the time. That was a promotional maximum, not a guaranteed return or a measure of the value ultimately received in cryptocurrency. [S01]

BitJem’s current product information continues to list SOL among its supported assets. It describes entering a card code and PIN, choosing the asset and reviewing fees, with identity checks potentially required. Users can hold the resulting balance in its wallet or withdraw to an external wallet. These current instructions confirm the general redemption model, rather than the precise terms that applied in December 2025. [S02]

What changes for gift card distribution

The product uses prepaid distribution to give the recipient a later choice of digital asset. That separates the giver’s purchase from the recipient’s redemption decision. It also places responsibility on the seller to explain that a crypto gift card leads to an account-based service rather than a conventional retailer checkout.

For programme operators, catalogue breadth is only one part of the assessment. The recipient needs to understand eligibility, verification, pricing and support before a reward is selected. A simple gift message does not remove those requirements.

The scope of the announcement

The product change established SOL as another redemption option. It did not establish a guaranteed asset price, zero fees or unrestricted availability in every jurisdiction. The economic result depends on the applicable quote and terms, while the market value of cryptocurrency can change.

This is coverage of the December 2025 product announcement. It is not an investment recommendation; users evaluating a current card should consult the issuer’s current redemption requirements and fees.
