Carbon offsetting is the act of purchasing carbon credits to balance the carbon emissions you've created.

Carbon credits involve multiple technologies from tree-planting to funding renewable energy projects to direct carbon capture.

You can purchase and keep track of carbon credits from the Credits tab in the app.

Your list of carbon credits can be found by tapping on the green Total offset bar. From there, you can see the certificates for your credits by tapping the green "Credited" button on each credit order. Here’s an example.

Credits are available for various projects curated by Decarbon. The price varies depending on the particulars of each project. Credit values are negative, while your purchases values are positive.

Payments are executed securely through Stripe, with Apple and Google Pay methods available. Decarbon doesn't store user payment method information in its databases.

There are two ways to get credits: single purchases and subscriptions.

You can buy credits one at a time by first choosing a project.

Each project profile contains useful details like:

You can access your subscription management on the Credits tab.

To switch subscriptions, first cancel your current subscription and then the Credits tab will provide you with a walkthrough to select your new subscription.

If you're unhappy with your credits purchase for any reason, email hi@decarbonapp.com within 7 days of purchasing and we'll give you a full refund.
