Company mission

Sling Money, a product of Avian Labs, is on a mission to connect billions of people worldwide through effortless, instant, global payments using blockchain technology. We're aiming to simplify the way the world connects financially.

Our take

Avian Labs is building software to help people move money from person to person and company to company without having to worry about sort codes, IBANs, wallet addresses, national borders, or even different currencies.

It is doing this on top of crypto rails, focusing on making it easy and accessible to everyone. Most businesses are now partly operating crypto payments, providing a perfect landscape for attackers seeking to harvest and exploit valuable data, which is why Avian Labs is focused on being safe, secure, and resistant to fraud and money laundering.

The company is in its very early stages but is already backed by world-class investors. Its founding team is composed of senior people who have helped build and scale global companies like Facebook, Deliveroo, Spotify, and Monzo, putting Avian Labs in an already-strong position when its product is ready to launch.
