Creating a sustainable future
We are committed to addressing climate change and creating a sustainable future. As a fintech company at the forefront of digital payments, we recognise the urgent need to reduce our environmental footprint and transition to a low-carbon economy.
We have committed to achieving net zero emissions
By setting ambitious, science-based goals and implementing strategic initiatives, we aim to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions to net zero, effectively balancing any remaining emissions with carbon removal or offsetting measures. Through collaboration, innovation, and continuous improvement, we are determined to make a positive contribution to the fight against climate change and create a more sustainable future for generations to come.
Our targets
2030
Reduce Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 87%
Immediate actions include implementing energy efficiency measures across all facilities and reducing reliance on non-renewable energy sources. We will also work closely with our suppliers to reduce upstream and downstream emissions, emphasizing sustainable practices and procurement.
2050
Achieve net zero emissions
As we look further ahead, our focus will shift towards integrating low-carbon technologies and business models into new developments and company operations. This strategic shift will involve prioritising sustainability in all areas of our business to ensure that our operational and supply chain activities are aligned with our net-zero ambitions.
What is net zero?
Net zero refers to a state in which the greenhouse gases going into the atmosphere are balanced by removal out of the atmosphere.
The science
To limit warming to 1.5°C above preindustrial levels and avoid the worst climate impacts, scientists have agreed that greenhouse gas emissions need to reduce by 50% by 2030 and reach net zero by 2050.
How can net zero be achieved?
Net-zero emissions will be achieved when all greenhouse gas emissions released by humans is balanced by removing the same amount of emissions from the atmosphere. For most companies to achieve net zero, greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced by at least 90% and any residual emissions removed on an ongoing basis.
