Never screenshot your bank details again 😤 Whats more awkward, and annoying, than having to chase friends to pay you back and send across your bank account details? Well, Spot is on a mission to change this. Send a payment link to your friends directly on your favourite messaging platform and they can pay you back in seconds. No sort-code, no account number. They dont even need Spot! So how does it work? Simply sign up to Spot, and connect your bank account. Send a Spot link, and when your friends pay you back the money will go directly into your bank account. To do this, we use Open Banking, meaning everything is completely secured by your bank. So it really is that easy, and totally free!

SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary. SpaceX has gained worldwide attention for a series of historic milestones. It is the only private company ever to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it first accomplished in December 2010. The company made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged cargo payloads, and returned safely to Earth — a technically challenging feat previously accomplished only by governments. Since then Dragon has delivered cargo to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA. For more information, visit www.spacex.com.

At PariPassu, we’re building the world’s most powerful network of founder support—where capital is supercharged by community. One deal at a time, we’re building a faster, more flexible way for founders, operators, and accredited tech enthusiasts to co-invest in industry-defining startups—alongside many of the world’s top venture firms. Those who invest with us are more than just backers—they’re (un)limited partners. (un)limited partner [noun]: Someone who moves with conviction, thinks independently, and backs bold ideas. (un)limited partners aren’t bound by fund cycles, red tape, or traditional investing hierarchies. They operate on their own terms—deal-by-deal. It’s more than a title. It’s a mindset. A belief that great investing can be faster, freer, and built on community—not committees. Our previous investments include SpaceX, Function Health, CHAOS Industries, Sydecar, Siena, and many more.
