Aven

AVen is building a new type of credit card backed by assets (secured by the equity in your home or car), enabling us to offer lower APRs to consumers. The team is a combination of finance (Goldman, SoFi, LendingClub) and technology (Microsoft, Facebook etc.) executives, with top tier investors -- Founders Fund, Sequoia, Khosla Ventures etc. We have raised upwards of $60 million so far.
