The embedded wallet ecosystem is growing rapidly across consumer and institutional applications. Today, we're announcing that Kiln is partnering with Turnkey to bring Ethereum staking and DeFi yield opportunities directly to developers building on Turnkey's embedded wallet infrastructure.
Embedded wallets everywhere
Turnkey provides the infrastructure that lets any application integrate wallet functionality without building key management from scratch. Their hardware-backed architecture handles secure transaction signing at scale, powering wallet operations for clients like Polymarket, Magic Eden, and Bridge.
This embedded wallet infrastructure is enabling a new generation of crypto applications. Instead of users accessing third-party dApps through traditional DeFi wallets, they interact with crypto directly through specialized apps: prediction markets, perps platforms, and gamified applications all have built-in wallet functionality. Some developers are building dedicated yield-focused products, while others want to add yield features to their existing apps to capture users and create new revenue streams.
These applications are sitting on massive amounts of idle capital. User balances typically just sit there earning nothing while users aren't actively transacting. But integrating yield functionality can be complex and resource-intensive.
Why yield integration is hard
This operational overhead keeps sophisticated yield strategies out of reach for most development teams, even though the opportunity is massive. Traditionally, adding yield means integrating with each DeFi protocol separately, maintaining complex upgrade cycles, negotiating individual revenue arrangements, and building custom reporting infrastructure.
For most developers, this isn't the core proposition, and the amount of resources required to integrate and support the yield stack isn't justified. However, as competition rises, users are increasingly chasing opportunities to maximize their capital efficiency, and for developers, it could be a chance to build stickiness around their product and monetize idle balances with no extra overhead.
This is exactly why Kiln built a unified yield infrastructure that handles all the complexity. Instead of developers integrating with dozens of protocols individually, Kiln provides a single API that abstracts away all the operational overhead while delivering institutional-grade yield strategies.
Kiln – the ultimate yield toolkit for developers
ETH Dedicated Staking: Institutional-grade validators delivering consistent rewards, with Kiln operating over 5.3% of the Ethereum network since Proof-of-Stake.
DeFi & Stablecoin Vaults: Battle-tested earning vaults across Aave, Compound, and Morpho, with protocol maintenance and new integrations handled by Kiln's team.
Enterprise operations: Complete compliance reporting, white-label deployment, and onchain monetization tools.
Since launching in 2024, Kiln DeFi has attracted over $380M in total value locked, powering yield for Trust Wallet, Ledger, Safe, Bitpanda, Crypto.com, and others.
Yield integration compatible with Turnkey infrastructure
Developers can embed yield functionality directly through Turnkey's existing infrastructure using Kiln's widget and API – the same solution trusted by Safe and other industry leaders. The integration supports rapid deployment for immediate functionality or comprehensive API access for custom interfaces.
Whether you're building simple savings features or sophisticated multi-strategy platforms, the combined solution scales to millions of users while maintaining institutional-grade security.
Making yield accessible
Rather than forcing developers to integrate dozens of protocols individually, Kiln provides a single interface for ready-to-use yield vaults. Our recent swap+deposit functionality and upcoming automated rebalancing features make yield generation as straightforward as any other API integration.
This lets developers focus on their core product while giving users the financial tools they expect from modern crypto applications.
