XRP 8 offers 3 providers updated 27 August 2026 at 10:26
Technically, XRP staking is not staking. You deposit your XRP with a provider and earn interest or another reward in return. The 8 offers from 3 providers below therefore involve counterparty risk rather than validator rewards from the XRP network. You may also see XRP referred to as Ripple.
XRP rates range from 0.01% to 8.25%, a difference of 8.24 percentage points. The median across the 8 offers is 1.35%, while Nexo has the highest listed return.
Below are 8 current XRP offers from 3 providers. You can sort by provider, product type or rate. Read the terms alongside the percentage, especially where a maximum rate requires a fixed period, a loyalty tier or a minimum deposit.
Enter your deposit at the top right of the table. The calculation applies minimum and maximum deposit limits, so it reflects the amount that can actually earn a return.

Rates for XRP differ between providers. This chart places all 8 offers from 3 providers on one scale, with the highest rate at 8.25%. A higher percentage does not automatically make an offer more suitable or less risky.

What would a 8.25% rate mean for your XRP position? Enter an amount of XRP or a value in euros to compare the estimated return from each offer. The calculation assumes the rate and coin price remain unchanged.
Technically, XRP staking does not exist at network level. XRP uses a mechanism other than Proof of Stake, so you cannot lock XRP to validate transactions and receive network staking rewards. The rates on this page therefore come from interest products funded by a provider.
XRP has no on-chain network staking: the network does not pay rewards to holders. Every displayed rate is funded by a provider, so the network staking category does not apply and counterparty risk becomes central.
Your coins help secure a network and the reward comes from that network. The main additional risks are slashing and the failure of any company holding your coins in custody. More about on-chain staking.
You deposit into a protocol and receive a tradable token representing the staked position. This adds smart contract, liquidity and depeg risk to the underlying staking risk. More about liquid staking.
This is not staking. You lend your coins to a provider, which pays interest from its own resources. If the provider fails, you may be an unsecured creditor and could lose the full deposit. More about lending.

The XRP Ledger has validators, but it does not use Proof of Stake. This explains most confusion about ‘XRP staking’. Validators agree on transaction order and validity through the XRP Ledger Consensus Protocol. They do not lock XRP as collateral and receive no XRP reward from the network.
An XRP holder therefore cannot delegate coins to a validator. There is no official staking wallet, no staking contract on the XRP Ledger and no protocol reward generated by locking XRP.
Every server chooses a Unique Node List of validators whose messages it trusts. When enough trusted validators agree, a new ledger version becomes final. The network is deliberately designed without financial validator rewards. Official XRP Ledger documentation explains that organisations run a validator because they benefit from a reliable network, not to earn newly issued XRP.
This model has no staking layer:
Validator and staking are not synonyms. A wallet supporting XRP cannot add a protocol function
that the XRP Ledger does not have.
At a central provider, it is generally lending. You transfer XRP to a company that pays interest or
uses the coins elsewhere. You then face that company’s credit and insolvency risk. A fixed term or
the label Earn does not change the product.
The XRP Ledger also has a decentralised exchange and Automated Market Maker pools. Supplying liquidity is not staking either. It introduces pool-specific risks, including changes in asset ratios and impermanent loss.
A sidechain or wrapped representation of XRP may have a staking mechanism of its own. Any reward then comes from that other chain or protocol, not the XRP Ledger, and should not be presented as official XRP staking.
When a provider asks you to ‘stake’ XRP, look for three answers:
If only the third question can be answered, assess it as lending. Our lending versus staking guide explains the differences in ownership and repayment.
The official sources are unusually clear: the XRP Ledger FAQ states that validators receive no XRP reward, while the consensus protocol documentation describes a model without Proof of Stake.
We collect rates directly from providers through their APIs or official websites and check them daily. Every rate shows when it was last checked. Providers can change terms without notice, so confirm the current rate before depositing.
Crypto returns are never guaranteed. On-chain staking can involve slashing, liquid staking adds smart contract and depeg risk, and lending can expose your entire deposit if a provider fails. In every category, a fall in the coin price can exceed the rewards earned.
