Your Tria card has already paid you.
Now your cashback post can too.
To celebrate Tria’s first major cashback distribution, we’re launching the #MyTriaCashback contest.
Share your cashback on X. 3 chosen winners can win $300 USDT each.
most crypto apps give you one thing. a swap. a yield. a card.
Tria gives you a flywheel.
trade → earn → stake → earn more → trade again. every feature feeds the next. your capital never sits still.
An update on Tria cashback.
Cashback is on its way to you, and our team is making sure each balance is calculated accurately and credited correctly across all eligible transactions.
Distribution begins within a week of season 2 ending, meaning you will receive your cashback by May 12, in USDC or USDT.
Happy spending!
