Offer an according climate protection contribution with your product or service

Climate protection contribution according to carbon emissions within an online booking flow

Your customers buy your product or service via an online portal. The carbon emissions of your product are integrated in your online booking flow. You let your customer know how much carbon emissions are emitted by buying or consuming the product. Additionally, it is possible to show the according contribution amount for our climate protection projects. The customer pays the product as well as the contribution in one payment.

Our recommendations:

  • Integrate the carbon emissions into your booking flow
  • Let your customers contribute to climate protection according to their emissions with one click of a button
  • Your customer settles one payment, including both your product and the contribution
  • For complex carbon emissions calculations, use one of our APIs
  • For simple or fixed carbon emissions calculations, use that value for your products
  • Track how many contributions are made by your users
  • Periodically settle the contributions with us

If you are not able to adapt your online portal, consider linking to the myclimate online portal. You can prefill input values for the calculation or even provide the carbon tonnes if you already know them.

Contribute to climate protection within an offline booking flow

Your customers are paying at a point-of-sale, via invoice or any other offline means. They might not even be directly involved in the booking flow, because you deliver the invoicing as a service to them.

Our recommendations:

  • For complex carbon emissions calculations, use one of our APIs
  • For simple or fixed carbon emissions calculations, use that value for your products
  • Track how many contributions are made by your users
  • Periodically settle the contributions with us

Offer carbon emissions for product comparison

You want to inform your customers about carbon emissions to enable them to compare the carbon footprint between different products (e.g. flights vs. cars), or you want to show the environment friendliness of your product or service.

Our recommendations:

  • Use our APIs to calculate carbon emissions for your products
