Beyond Cash: How PayRio Modernizes Cannabis & Alt-Med Payments
In this WTR Small-Cap Spotlight, host Tim Gerdeman and WTR’s James Kisner sits down with PayRio Founder & CEO Aubrey Amatelli to explore how the company delivers compliant digital payments for cannabis and alternative medicine—from its “Digital Debit” solution that replaces legacy cashless-ATM workflows to a broader roadmap spanning CBD, psilocybin, peptides, and ketamine therapy. The conversation also covers PayRio’s culture (a female-led team bringing “feminine energy” to fintech), profitability without outside venture funding, and what rescheduling and the SAFER Banking Act could mean for payments and banking across the industry.
