Kamino Lending, Vaults, and KMNO Staking Are Now Live Through the Yield API

Kamino Lending, Vaults, and KMNO Staking Are Now Live Through the Yield API

One Yield.xyz integration now gives wallets, custodians, and fintechs a direct path into Kamino lending, curated vaults, and KMNO staking on Solana.

The integration covers more than 150 supply-side lending opportunities and 20 curated vaults across assets including SOL, USDC, USDT, cbBTC, JLP, and PYUSD. Each opportunity runs through the same discovery, action, and balance schemas already used by Yield.xyz over 200 clients, including Ledger, Zerion, Tangem, DeBlock, Utila, and others.

For existing clients, adding Kamino does not require a separate set of protocol-specific transaction, position-tracking, or reward-claiming flows.

Lending and vault coverage across Solana

Kamino lending markets are built on K-Lend, the protocol’s modular lending infrastructure. Users supply assets to a market and earn variable interest paid by borrowers. Supported opportunities cover assets including SOL, USDC, USDT, cbBTC, JLP, and PYUSD.

Kamino Vaults provide a different allocation model. Users deposit a single asset into a vault, which allocates capital across Kamino lending markets according to its curator’s strategy and risk parameters. This gives platforms a way to support managed lending strategies without recreating vault allocation logic in their own products.

Vault selection and management remain with each Kamino vault curator. Yield.xyz provides standardized discovery, transaction construction, and position tracking across the supported opportunities.

Developers can review the full integration details in the Kamino documentation.

KMNO staking and incentive tracking

The integration also supports KMNO staking and the reward flows associated with eligible Kamino positions.

Users can accrue KMNO incentives through supported lending and vault positions. Yield.xyz surfaces accrued balances and available reward claims through the same balance and pending-action model used for other integrations.

This allows a client application to display the complete position lifecycle in one interface: the original deposit, the active lending or vault position, accrued incentives, and any available claim or withdrawal action.

One action model for every supported opportunity

Yield.xyz converts protocol-specific interactions into a consistent set of API actions.

A client can discover Kamino opportunities by network, asset, or product type. When a user chooses an opportunity, the client submits an enter action and receives an unsigned Solana transaction ready for the user’s existing signing flow.

The same model applies throughout the position lifecycle:

Position data is returned through the Yield API’s normalized balance schema. Clients can track active positions, USD values, earning status, and available follow-up actions without maintaining separate Kamino-specific balance infrastructure.

Transactions remain unsigned when returned by the API, allowing wallets, custodians, and fintechs to use their existing signing and custody systems.

“Kamino was built to give Solana users access to a broad range of onchain credit markets, lending strategies, and managed vaults. Support through Yield.xyz gives wallets, custodians, and fintechs a consistent a consistent integration layer for bringing Kamino products into their own applications without each team needing to build protocol-specific infrastructure.

Adding Kamino to an existing Yield.xyz integration

Existing Yield.xyz clients can add Kamino using the same integration patterns already deployed for other protocols and networks. Teams do not need to build separate transaction logic, position indexing, or reward-claim flows to integrate.

Kamino support extends the Yield API’s Solana coverage across direct lending, managed vault strategies, and protocol-native staking. As supported Kamino opportunities expand, clients can surface them through the same schemas already running in production.
