Data Quality

Data: Medium

Rain presents a strong upside opportunity for a job seeker, driven by its explosive growth in active card base (30x) and payment volume (38x) in 2025, reaching over $3 billion in annualized transactions.

Last updated: March 10, 2026

Bull (40%)+180%

Rain leverages its strong moat as a Visa Principal Member and proprietary full-stack technology to dominate the rapidly expanding enterprise stablecoin payments market. Explosive growth in active card base (30x) and payment volume (38x) continues, pushing annualized transactions well beyond $10B and justifying a valuation of $5.46B+ by 2028, driven by global expansion and new product adoption.

Base (25%)+75%

Rain maintains its strong position in the stablecoin payments infrastructure market, growing its enterprise customer base and expanding internationally. While competition from incumbents like Brex and Ramp intensifies, Rain's specialized focus and regulatory readiness allow for sustained, albeit moderated, growth. The company reaches an annualized transaction volume of $5-7B, leading to an exit valuation of approximately $3.41B.

Bear (35%)-55%

Increased regulatory scrutiny or a significant push by dominant incumbents (e.g., Stripe's 'chain-agnostic' solutions or traditional banks entering the stablecoin space) erodes Rain's market share and pricing power. Growth slows considerably, and the company faces a down round or a flat exit. Given the $338M in liquidation preferences, a valuation of $0.8775B would significantly diminish or wipe out common stock value.
