Every time you use your ekko debit card, you’ll spread ‘good vibes’ around the world by planting trees and preventing plastic from entering our oceans. Every five transactions on your card pays for one ocean-bound plastic bottle to be collected. Every fifty transactions will pay for a tree to be planted. We’ve also built a marketplace of sustainable products and services, and you can track your carbon footprint correlated to your purchases.
