Ripple Buys GTreasury in $1 Billion Expansion into Corporate Finance

Ripple is taking another major step beyond blockchain payments by moving into the corporate treasury space. The company announced plans to acquire GTreasury, a cloud-based treasury and digital asset infrastructure provider, in a deal valued at $1 billion.

Good to Know

• Ripple plans to buy GTreasury for $1B, pending regulatory approval.
• The deal will merge blockchain payments with corporate treasury management.
• Ripple’s CEO says the partnership will help unlock “trapped capital” and speed up cross-border payments.

Ripple’s move reflects a growing shift among fintech and blockchain firms to target corporate finance operations. By integrating GTreasury’s cloud tools, Ripple aims to help global corporations manage both traditional and digital assets more efficiently.

Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple, said the acquisition is about solving long-standing inefficiencies in how companies move money.

“For too long, money has been stuck in slow, outdated payments systems and infrastructure, causing unnecessary delays, high costs, and roadblocks to entering new markets – problems that blockchain technologies are ideally suited to solve.

Ripple’s and GTreasury’s capabilities together bring the best of both worlds, so treasury and finance teams can finally put their trapped capital to work, process payments instantly, and open up new growth opportunities.”

More About GTreasury

GTreasury is known for its enterprise-grade treasury management platform, which helps businesses oversee liquidity, cash flow, and risk in real time. By adding blockchain-powered payment infrastructure to that ecosystem, Ripple expects to make treasury operations faster and more transparent — especially for companies that hold stablecoins or tokenized assets.

The partnership is expected to give blue-chip firms the ability to manage cryptocurrencies at scale, integrating digital asset liquidity into day-to-day operations.

Although the acquisition is not yet finalized, both firms expect to close the deal within the next few months once regulatory approvals are complete. Ripple has been on an active buying spree this year as it seeks to expand its influence across different segments of financial technology.

Earlier in the year, Ripple purchased Rail, a Toronto-based stablecoin payments platform, for $200 million. That acquisition created what the company called the most complete stablecoin payments solution available on the market — a foundation that now fits neatly alongside GTreasury’s enterprise tools.

Analysts view Ripple’s latest move as a way to deepen its integration into traditional finance while expanding utility for its native asset, XRP, which currently trades at $2.39, up 1.8% on the day.
