PayByPhone has achieved Carbon Neutral Plus status in the UK. Carbon Neutral Plus is an accreditation awarded to organisations that offset more than 10% of their carbon footprint.

PayByPhone first gained Carbon Neutral status in 2019, following an assessment by Carbon Footprint, a body that helps organisations offset carbon emissions and promote their environmental credentials.

PayByPhone offset its carbon footprint by backing the Portel-Pará REDD, a Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) audited project in the Amazon rainforest that combats deforestation.

Jonny Combe, PayByPhone’s UK chief executive, said: “We are delighted to have achieved Carbon Neutral Plus status just a year after becoming carbon neutral. Following our annual audit with Carbon Footprint it was confirmed that we had offset 10% more than our carbon footprint, an achievement we are very proud of.

“Through our multi-award-winning Meters for Trees programme, which we launched in July 2019, we are also helping local authorities to cut their carbon emissions by reducing the number of miles driven by parking machine maintenance and cash collection teams, as well as offsetting emissions by donating trees both in the UK and supporting deforestation in the Amazon rainforest.”
