Merkl, a leading incentive platform, now supports non-EVM chains starting with Stellar. Protocols can launch reward campaigns on Stellar through Merkl Studio, while users earn rewards directly on the network using compatible wallets like Freighter.
Merkl has expanded beyond its EVM-only focus to support non-EVM blockchains, with Stellar as the first integration. The platform previously supported 60+ EVM chains but required significant infrastructure changes to accommodate Stellar's unique virtual machine and account model. Protocols on Stellar can now create incentive campaigns for any onchain activity through Merkl Studio, while users can browse opportunities and claim rewards via the Merkl App using Freighter wallets. The expansion represents a strategic shift toward becoming an incentive layer for all blockchains regardless of architecture, with more non-EVM chains planned for future support.
