FAQ
Why didn’t my Starlink payment go through?
Some Starlink card payments may be declined due to issuer, partner, account, merchant, or compliance limits. If your payment does not go through, check that your KAST card is active, your balance is sufficient, and your card details are correct. If everything looks right and the payment still fails, contact KAST Concierge so the team can review your transaction.
Are there limits for Starlink transactions?
Yes. Starlink purchases on KAST RAIN cards are subject to a $2,000 spend limit or a maximum of 3 transactions per 7-day period. This keeps your account secure while still covering hardware and subscription costs with room to spare.
Can I pay for Starlink with USDT or USDC?
You can fund your KAST account with supported stablecoins, where available, and use your KAST card for supported card payments. Your Starlink checkout is still processed as a card payment, not as a direct crypto payment to Starlink.
Will my Starlink purchase earn rewards?
Eligible Starlink card purchases may earn USD cashback based on your KAST membership tier. Premium and Private members may also earn KAST Points on eligible card spend. Rewards are subject to eligibility rules, monthly caps, and applicable terms.
