Digital comes with a real environmental cost. We build that cost into our business model: a share of every invoice directly funds technologies that permanently remove carbon from the atmosphere.
of every transaction goes to carbon removal each month, at no extra cost to our clients.
Our environmental responsibility doesn't stop at a donation. It starts with the code we write and the structural choices we make every day.
Lightweight architectures, lean scripts, optimised images, deferred loading. Every unnecessary line we avoid lowers the energy consumed by your site and by everyone who visits it.
Platforms built to evolve over time rather than be rebuilt every two years. A redesign avoided is months of work — and emissions — saved.
0.5% of every transaction goes to a portfolio of permanent carbon removal technologies, selected against rigorous scientific criteria.
Our contribution is spread across early-stage projects that, at scale, can permanently remove the CO₂ already in the atmosphere.
Facilities that draw in ambient air, extract the CO₂ and store it deep in geological formations for thousands of years.
Speeding up the natural process by which certain rocks absorb CO₂ and turn it into stable minerals on geological timescales.
Turning biomass into energy while permanently locking its carbon away — underground or into enriched agricultural soils.
Most traditional offset programs simply avoid future emissions — they never remove the carbon already in the atmosphere. We chose the opposite path: funding technologies that physically remove CO₂, and do so permanently.
The high cost of these solutions today is precisely what funds tomorrow's price drop. It's our modest but concrete way to contribute to a Paris-aligned trajectory rather than to mere talk.
Through Stripe Climate
Our contribution flows through Stripe Climate, which pools commitments from thousands of companies to pre-purchase carbon removal from startups vetted by an independent scientific committee.
