Wellgistics Health Launches XRP-Based Strategic Reserve

Story Highlights
  • Wellgistics launches $50 million XRP plan, becoming a blockchain-first leader in healthcare finance.

  • Blockchain brings full transparency to healthcare payments, replacing outdated and confusing billing systems.

  • XRP enables 3-second payments, cutting delays that often hurt pharmacies and patient care.

  • Wellgistics CEO says healthcareโ€™s future belongs to fast, efficient platforms, not paperwork or big buildings.

Wellgistics Health, a fast-growing U.S. pharmaceutical distributor, has just launched a massive $50 million XRP-powered payments initiative, becoming one of the first publicly traded healthcare companies to fully embrace blockchain for real-world operations.

Forget 3-day wire transfers and piles of paperwork. Wellgistics is betting big that Rippleโ€™s XRP will be the backbone of next-gen medical finance.

Goodbye Slow Payments: With XRP

Healthcare has long been criticized for its slow payments, high fees, and outdated systems. For pharmacies, suppliers, and patients, delayed payments and confusing bills can make it harder to get the care they need.

But Wellgistics is hoping to change that, as theyโ€™ve locked in a $50 million credit facility to upgrade their infrastructure  

By integrating XRP and Rippleโ€™s blockchain network, the company aims to speed up vendor payments, automate pharmacy reimbursements, and improve financial access across its supply chain.

Instead of waiting days for payments to clear, Wellgistics will use XRP to send money in just 3 seconds. That means less delay, fewer mistakes, and a much smoother process.

Why Wellgistics Picked XRP Only?

XRP was picked for a reason. Unlike traditional bank wires that take 1- 3 days and charge high fees in between $10 – $30, XRP can settle in seconds at a fraction of a $0.0002. That kind of speed and cost efficiency could be a game-changer in medical logistics, where every delay affects lives.

But itโ€™s not just about speed & efficiency.

By using blockchain, every payment can be tracked. This brings more clarity and trust to a system thatโ€™s often full of confusion.

Wellgistics is not just upgrading techโ€”itโ€™s building a smarter, faster way to move money in healthcare.

CEO’s Vision: Outrun the Old System

According to Wellgistics CEO Brian Norton, the healthcare industry doesn’t need more paperwork or bigger buildings. He says it best, the winners in healthcare wonโ€™t be the biggest, theyโ€™ll be the fastest. 

A healthcare world that runs on clean data, instant liquidity, and blockchain-powered rails. 

With XRP as the backbone, Wellgistics is laying the foundation for a faster, more transparent healthcare ecosystem, one where money moves as quickly as the medicine it supports.
