SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador, March 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bitget Wallet, the everyday finance app, announced a strategic integration to bring the XRP Ledger directly into Bitget Wallet’s ecosystem, giving more than 90 million users access to XRP-based payments, cross-border transfers, and Ripple’s stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD). The move significantly expands the retail distribution of the XRP Ledger, integrating the network as a payment rail inside one of the largest non-custodial crypto wallets globally.
The integration also connects XRP Ledger to Bitget Wallet’s broader payments infrastructure, the Onchain Payments Matrix, which links blockchain networks with banks, card systems and merchant payment rails. By embedding XRPL into this system, Bitget Wallet is making blockchain-based transfers, merchant payments and cross-border settlement accessible to everyday users.
Through the integration, Bitget Wallet users can send and receive XRP and RLUSD directly on the XRP Ledger while accessing cross-chain swaps between XRPL assets and tokens across multiple blockchain networks. The wallet will also support RLUSD on- and off-ramp channels, allowing users to move funds between fiat and stablecoins and interact with XRPL-based applications directly from within the wallet.
This integration reflects a broader shift across digital asset markets as stablecoins increasingly move beyond trading and begin functioning as global payment and settlement infrastructure. By embedding XRPL inside Bitget Wallet’s payment ecosystem, Bitget Wallet aims to make blockchain-based transfers, merchant payments, and cross-border settlement accessible to everyday users rather than limited to exchanges or institutional platforms. XRPL assets will also integrate into Bitget Wallet's payment ecosystem, including crypto cards, QR merchant payments, and bank transfer settlement, helping connect blockchain settlement networks with traditional financial rails.
RLUSD is designed to support cross-border transfers and digital commerce, with the Bitget Wallet integration aimed at broadening global retail access to the network. Bitget Wallet is bringing retail access to the XRP Ledger's role in stablecoin and payment infrastructure
"Crypto wallets are evolving into full financial interfaces," said Alvin Kan, COO of Bitget Wallet. "Our goal is to make blockchain usable in everyday finance. By integrating with the XRP Ledger and providing access to Ripple's stablecoin, RLUSD, we’re expanding Onchain Payments Matrix, the payment infrastructure connecting blockchains, stablecoins, and traditional rails so digital assets can move more easily between onchain systems and real-world commerce."
"Bitget Wallet has been building toward making wallets the front door to everyday finance, and the XRPL community is pleased to walk through that door together,” said Brett Mollin, Executive Director of the XRPL Foundation. “Bringing XRP and RLUSD to 90 million users who are already using crypto to pay, save, and transact in daily life is exactly the kind of retail reach the ecosystem needs and the foundation of the closed-loop financial system we're working to build."
To celebrate this strategic integration, Bitget Wallet will support ecosystem adoption through initiatives designed to increase activity across the XRP Ledger. The program includes incentives supporting community campaigns aimed at expanding liquidity and participation on the network.
To support RLUSD adoption, Bitget Wallet will be providing limited-time reward opportunities, aimed at lowering barriers for first-time stablecoin users and expanding liquidity across XRPL-based financial applications.
