TruMed Investment

Truemed develops a specialized payment platform that enables consumers to utilize their Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds for a wide array of eligible health and wellness products and services. The company's core offering streamlines the checkout process for pre-tax dollars, allowing individuals to pay for items such as fitness equipment, nutritional supplements, health technology, and recovery solutions directly from their benefit accounts. This infrastructure facilitates access to preventive and lifestyle-based healthcare, offering a substantial financial advantage to users.

The company was founded by Justin Mares and Calley Means, who identified a significant opportunity in bridging the gap between eligible health expenditures and consumer access to pre-tax savings. Their insight was centered on unlocking the vast potential of HSA and FSA funds, making it easier and more affordable for individuals to invest in their proactive health and well-being. Mares and Means sought to remove the complexities often associated with using these benefit accounts for everyday health purchases.

Truemed's product serves both individual consumers seeking to maximize their health savings and businesses looking to accept HSA/FSA payments for their health-oriented products. The company’s vision is to establish itself as the foundational payment layer for preventative healthcare, driving greater adoption of health-promoting goods and services. They aim to empower a health-conscious population by simplifying financial pathways to a healthier lifestyle.
