Mural Pay Manifesto
Our mission is to make every international transaction fast, scalable, and secure. We believe in a world where sending money internationally will be as easy as sending a text and as secure as the latest advancements in cybersecurity. In a world where there are 1.4 billion unbanked and global payments run on legacy infrastructure built 20 to 40+ years ago, we need a massive overhaul. We are building this. We are defining the new financial internet.
Some of our core principles:
2% Better - every day, bias towards action - we level up ourselves, our team, and our customers, incrementally, with great diligence (inspired by Atomic Habits, our company book)
Bias Towards Action - we move with momentum and we expect everyone on the team to execute swiftly
Build the clünk - what is clünk you may ask? Ask us about it. We build great products that make our users feel the difference, especially in small yet compounding interactions
