This allows users to use BAT purchased on Gemini inside the Brave Rewards ecosystem (for example, to tip and contribute to creators). The BAT balance in Brave Rewards will reflect the BAT balance in the user’s Gemini account, including BAT purchased on Gemini.

(This does not include BAT that is already in another custodial account, such as Uphold).

When an unverified Rewards user selects Gemini to verify their browser’s Brave Rewards, they can create (or log in to) a Gemini account, and any previously accrued BAT will be transferred to their Gemini account.“Brave’s Android app update will provide customers with the flexibility to easily connect their Gemini account to Brave, not just on their desktop, but on their mobile devices as well.”īrave Android users can use this new custodial option to link their browser’s Brave Rewards with Gemini, in addition to the existing Uphold option. “We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Brave and offer customers the most seamless experience for buying, selling, storing, and earning crypto wherever they are,” said Marshall Beard, Head of Strategy at Gemini. “With this integration, Brave Rewards users on Android now have even more control over their BAT, and can easily move it around.” “As part of our growing partnership with Gemini, we are excited to deliver this highly requested feature to our users on Android,” said Christopher Nguyen, Product Manager of Brave Rewards. Today’s custodial option for Android follows the integration on desktop in August 2021. With the Brave Android app update rolling out today (v1.38), Brave users who opt into Brave Rewards on Android can connect a Gemini account to their browser’s Brave Rewards to manage their Basic Attention Tokens (BAT).
