Why We Built Wilde


If DeFi is the future of finance, Wilde is how you’ll spend it.
Crypto has unlocked an entirely new financial system: You can lend, borrow, LP, trade, stake, and build your own strategies on-chain like money legos. But the moment you try to spend your crypto in the real world, you hit a wall.
Most people still need to bridge to a centralized exchange, convert to fiat, wait for the funds to hit a bank account, and pay a fee. Spending crypto in the real world still feels stuck in the past.
We didn’t want to wait for someone else to solve it. So we built Wilde to cut the off-ramp entirely.
The Market Is Clear: People Want to Spend Crypto
At Perp Labs, we obsess over data. Before writing a single line of code, we dug into Dune dashboards and researched dozens of crypto card projects to understand what the market was actually offering.


Here’s what we found:
The market is growing. More users are looking for ways to spend crypto directly.
Dozens of projects have launched, but overall supply is still limited compared to demand.
Most card products focus on simple cash back models. Very few offer yield on deposits, and almost none explore multiple reward streams.
The demand is real. The design space is still wide open. And we believe crypto-native spending can offer much more than just cash back.
What We Believed Needed to Exist
When we looked at what was already out there, most solutions were still built around converting crypto back into fiat first. They weren’t fully using the advantages of DeFi or onchain liquidity.
We believed something else should exist.
A card that works directly from DeFi without requiring an offramp.
A card that keeps your funds in yield strategies until the moment you tap.
A card that rewards you not just for spending, but for being onchain.
A card built for people who don’t want to go back to banks.
We didn’t see that card out there. So we built it.
Introducing Wilde: A Crypto Card Built by Perp Labs
Wilde is what we’d want to use ourselves.
Card that Pays You to Hold: Your deposit earns yield until the moment you spend it. Wilde auto-deploys deposits into on-chain strategies, so nothing sits still.
Multiple rewards stream: Every time you spend, Wilde gives you points, plus additional rewards from our chain partners. One card, multiple reward streams. The more you spend, the more you stack.
Lowest fee: No Hidden Costs. We offer one of the lowest fee structures on the market: no deposit fees, no top-up fees, no annual fees, and no card issuance fees. We keep fees low so more of your crypto stays yours.
Instant card issuance: No wait, no nonsense. Get your card and start spending immediately.
Self-custody first: No deposits into centralized accounts. Fully on-chain. Always yours.
Beautiful UX: The kind people expect from Perp Labs products.
More than just a card, Wilde is a spending layer for crypto. The bridge between your onchain life and real-world use.
This Is Just the Start
Our first chain partner is locked in, and we’re rolling out chain-exclusive reward programs from day one. On top of that, we’re building new reward mechanics that let users stack multiple rewards every time they spend.
We’re not just building a card. We’re building the missing link between DeFi and the real world.
