Fund carbon removals that hill farmers own.

Every tonne comes from trees on smallholder farms and village forests, measured tree by tree and checked by satellite every five days. Between 60 and 70% of the carbon revenue goes to the farmers and communities who grow them.

No credits have been issued yet. The first issuance is expected around 2028 to 2031, depending on the project. Today you can reserve future credits for free. You pay by invoice only after the credits are issued and verified, and they are retired in your name in the official registry.

Indicative cost––
Paid to farmers and communities–60 to 70% of the carbon revenue
Share of your yearly emissions–reported as a contribution, not subtracted

Prices are indicative ranges per tonne, before tax, and set per project when credits are issued. A reservation fixes a price only once both sides sign a purchase agreement.

How buying works

From reservation to a certificate in your name.

  1. Reserve

    Tell us the project, tonnes and year. It's free and commits you to nothing. You get a reference straight away.

  2. Agree

    We send a forward purchase agreement with the price, delivery range and a change-in-law clause, so both sides are protected if the rules change.

  3. Verify and issue

    An independent verifier audits the sealed field record, and the registry issues credits with serial numbers.

  4. Pay by invoice

    Pay by bank transfer (SWIFT or NEFT) or UPI. There are no card fees, so more of the money reaches the farmers.

  5. Retire in your name

    We retire the credits in the official registry with your name as the beneficiary, and you get a public certificate page you can link to.

What you can check

Evidence your auditors and lawyers will ask for.

Registry serial numbers

Every credit is issued and retired in the Verra, Plan Vivo or Puro registry. The app never holds credits, so no tonne can be sold twice.

Tree-by-tree measurement

Trees are measured in randomly placed 10 m boxes that an auditor can re-create exactly, and run through one published formula (Chave et al. 2014).

Satellite checks every five days

Optical and radar satellites, which see through monsoon cloud, plus NASA fire alerts. Losses are flagged and investigated.

Consent before enrolment

Village council resolutions (FPIC) and signed benefit-sharing agreements are recorded before any plot is mapped. Consent can be withdrawn.

Farmer payments on record

Every payment to a farmer is logged with its UPI or bank reference in a ledger that can't be edited afterwards.

Open grievance channel

Anyone can raise a complaint without going through our staff, on a public grievance page.

Two things we tell every buyer up front

  • These credits carry no corresponding adjustment. India's approved list for Paris Agreement Article 6 trading doesn't include tree planting or biochar yet. You can buy, retire and report these credits freely, but a government or an airline can't count them towards its own targets.
  • They are for contribution claims, not for offsetting. Report them separately from your own emissions, as ESRS E1 asks. In the EU, a product can't be called "climate neutral" on the strength of credits from 27 September 2026. The claims guide below gives wording that fits.
Claims guide

Say it in a way that holds up.

Suggested wording

Avoid

    General guidance, not legal advice. Have your own counsel check claims before you publish them.

    Reserve

    Reserve future credits.

    Certificates

    Every retirement, in public.

    Questions buyers ask

    Before you sign.

    What if fewer credits are issued than I reserved?

    Agreements give a delivery range. You pay only for the tonnes delivered. If fewer credits are issued, you get first claim on the next issuance.

    Can I sell or move the credits myself?

    By default we retire them in your name, which is what most buyers want. If you have your own registry account, we can transfer them to it instead.

    Why is the price a range?

    Credits from smallholder removals with strong community benefits sell in a range that depends on the standard, the vintage and independent ratings. Your agreement fixes one price.

    Who owns the land and the carbon?

    The farmers and village councils do. In Nagaland, Article 371A of the Constitution keeps land with villages and clans. We enrol land; we never buy or lease it. Each community signs a carbon rights agreement before any credit is sold.

    Can Indian companies buy?

    Yes. Indian buyers pay in rupees by NEFT or UPI and can report the credits in their BRSR as voluntary action. GST is added as the law requires.

    What stops the trees being cut later?

    Satellites check every plot every five days, and each standard keeps a buffer of credits aside to cover losses. Plots stay monitored for the whole crediting period.
