Partners get wallets, cards, virtual accounts, and payouts from Rain through one integration, keeping their choice of chains, stablecoins, and networks.

Key Facts:

  • Stablecoins that work like any other money: Rain non-custodial wallets let users get paid, save, earn, spend, and send from a single stablecoin balance.
  • Spending built in: Rain wallet balances natively back Rain-issued cards, so users can spend at 175 million merchant locations worldwide.
  • Flexibility and Choice: Partners can offer Rain wallets and directly connect to Rain's cards, rewards, onramps, offramps, and payouts. Rain wallets support twelve blockchains, so partners are not tied to one chain or one stablecoin.
  • Simple and secure: Partners can embed Rain wallets directly into their apps to make it easy for users to get started. Users easily sign in with a passkey or a code sent to their email or phone instead of a seed phrase.
  • Availability: Non-custodial Rain wallets, where users hold their own keys, are available to Rain partners today. Custodial wallets and additional features to help users earn on their stablecoin balance will be available before the end of the year.

NEW YORK, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rain, the global stablecoin payments platform, today announced Rain wallets, embedded stablecoin wallets that partners can offer their users inside their own apps, with the ability to earn on balances to follow by end of year. The wallet is the account at the center of Rain's platform. It is accessible through the same integration that issues the card, powers rewards, and supports money movement, so a user can get paid, save, spend, and send from one balance.

Companies bringing stablecoins to their users want them to work the way any other money does. For that to happen, a stablecoin balance needs to connect to everything a user wants to do with it. Rain wallets put that balance at the center of Rain's platform, so the full life cycle of money runs in one place, from the moment it arrives to the moment it is spent or sent.

Consider a freelancer in Mexico paid by a U.S. client. Her pay is sent in dollars to her virtual account and lands in her Rain wallet as stablecoins, with no manual conversion. She can spend that afternoon at any of the 175 million merchant locations where her Rain-issued card is accepted, or she can access additional ways to earn on balances directly in her app. When she needs pesos, she can send them straight to her local bank account using Rain's global payouts. The entire experience lives inside one app, and it's all powered by Rain's infrastructure.

"When a company builds with stablecoins, the first thing its users need is a place to hold them," said Pooja Shah, Head of Product at Rain. "Rain wallets are that place. Because they are integrated into the broader Rain stack, every balance is ready to use the moment it arrives. Partners can get all of it from Rain, or keep the wallet they have and plug it into everything else we run."

How Rain wallets fit into Rain's full-stack platform

The wallet is the account at the center of Rain's full-stack platform, the place where a partner's users hold their stablecoins and the balance every other Rain product draws on. Rain started by making stablecoins spendable through cards and is now powering all onchain experiences through the wallet. A balance can arrive through a virtual account or onramp, fund a card, be put to work, and be sent to a bank account in local currency without ever leaving the partner's app. For enterprises, that means one vendor integrating the full flow of funds, and every product a partner adds works with the ones they already run.

While Rain offers the convenience of an end-to-end platform, its infrastructure is also built to be open and interoperable. Partners that already work with a wallet provider can connect it to Rain's cards, rewards, onramps, and payouts. Rain wallets support multiple stablecoins and other crypto assets across major blockchains, giving partners the flexibility to choose which assets or networks best fit their business.

Availability

Non-custodial Rain wallets are available today while custodial wallets and additional earning capabilities will be available by the end of the year. For more information, reach out to sales@rain.xyz or visit https://www.rain.xyz/product/wallets.

Frequently asked questions

What are Rain wallets?
Rain wallets are embedded stablecoin wallets that Rain's partners offer to their users inside their own apps. Each Rain wallet connects directly to Rain cards, virtual accounts, onramps, offramps, and payouts, so users can get paid, spend, and send from one stablecoin balance. Non-custodial embedded wallets, where users custody their own funds, are available today, while custodial Rain wallets will be available by the end of the year.

What blockchains do Rain wallets support? 
Non-custodial Rain wallets support twelve blockchains today: Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, BNB Smart Chain, Celo, Ethereum, Monad, Plasma, Optimism, Polygon, Solana, and ZKsync.

What stablecoins will Rain wallets support?
Rain wallets hold USDC, USDT, other stablecoins and crypto assets on supported blockchains. Functionality may vary depending on the network.

What's the benefit of a Rain wallet?
A Rain wallet connects a user's stablecoin balance to everything they want to do with it on one platform. Money that arrives through a Rain virtual account lands in the Rain wallet as stablecoins, can fund Rain card spending at 175 million merchant locations, and can be sent to a bank account in local currency through Rain offramps and payouts without leaving the partner's app. In the future, we plan to launch features that will let end users earn directly from stablecoin balances held in their Rain wallets.

Can I use other Rain services without a Rain wallet?
Yes. Rain cards, and the rest of its stack, work with the infrastructure partners already use, including third-party non-custodial wallets. Partners that choose Rain wallets get card funding built in, ensuring a more seamless experience to power card spending directly.

SmartSens presents automotive-grade image sensors and integrated imaging-and-computing solutions for a range of vehicle applications

BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 13, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- At AutoSens Europe 2026, held from September 22 to 24 at La Farga de L'Hospitalet in Barcelona, SmartSens, a technologically advanced supplier of CMOS image sensors and the No.3 player in global CIS market shipments in 2025, showcased its automotive-grade (AT) image sensor portfolio, alongside solutions that support forward-facing cameras, 360-degree surround-view systems, driver monitoring systems (DMS) and occupant monitoring systems (OMS). Through architectural innovation that deeply integrates imaging and computing, the company is helping to advance global intelligent driving technologies.

At the exhibition, SmartSens' Automotive Business Group held in-depth product and business exchanges with multiple global partners. Meanwhile, Toby Zou, co-general manager of SmartSens' Automotive Business Group, delivered a keynote address at a technical forum held alongside the exhibition.

SmartSens also debuted integrated forward-facing camera module solutions powered by the M2 SoC from its subsidiary Flyingchip in a live demonstration that drew significant attention from attendees. The module solutions use the 8.3MP automotive-grade sensor SC860AT for forward-view imaging and the SC233AT for DMS, enabling vehicles to closely monitor their surroundings and maintain acute awareness in demanding lighting conditions. The sensor suites also deliver consistent image quality and reliable inference across side-view, rear-view and in-cabin OMS cameras, as well as camera-based rearview mirror systems.

The OMS solution pairs the SC533AT, a 5MP automotive-grade image sensor, with Flyingchip's M1 SoC. SC533AT delivers exceptional results with high sensitivity, low noise and high shutter efficiency, offering the image clarity and accuracy required for reliable operation. The image sensor application supports passenger and child presence detection, the detection of pets and objects left in the vehicle, as well as in-cabin photography and video conferencing.

For surround-view applications, SmartSens presented a 360-degree solution based on the 3MP SC360AT. Under extreme lighting conditions such as backlighting and glare from oncoming headlights at night, it suppresses overexposure and retains complete shadow details, improving safety and convenience in parking and narrow-road passing scenarios.

On the second day of the show, at the technical forum held alongside the exhibition, Toby Zou was invited to deliver a keynote address, "Empowering Intelligent Driving: Advancing High Dynamic Range and High Resolution in Automotive CIS."

Zou noted that the continued growth of new energy vehicles worldwide and the automotive industry's progression toward Level 3 and Level 4 automated driving are making the imaging performance of automotive CMOS image sensors in complex scenarios central to system perception. His keynote covered pixel architecture, HDR, global-shutter technology and system-level integration, and examined how closer integration of imaging and computing can advance automotive vision across a broad range of use cases. He also presented SmartSens' CIS portfolio as an integrated platform for next-generation vehicle perception application.

SmartSens combines its flexible sensor integration, advanced image processing and innovative automotive sensing technologies. The unified offerings give automakers and Tier 1 suppliers access to flexible, reliable imaging solutions designed for production-scale deployment in advanced driving systems.
