About Sling:

Sling is building a world where sending and receiving money is effortless. The app leverages stablecoin and real-time payment technology to allow people to move money anywhere, in any currency, nearly instantly and for a negligible fee. Sling makes global transfers easy by enabling users to pay people, not anonymous account numbers. It’s available in 150+ countries on the Android and iOS app stores. An Avian Labs product, Sling was founded by Mike Hudack and Simon Amor, who have decades of product engineering and design experience. Learn more at www.sling.money.
