Financial Flow

Where does my money go

In the traditional carbon credit market, project developers often receive only a small fraction of the funds raised from credit sales. This is due to multiple layers of intermediaries, each imposing various fees:

  • Registration Fees – Costs associated with enrolling projects in a registry.
  • Processing Fees – Charges for validating and listing carbon credits.
  • Third-Party Audit & Consultation Fees – Expenses for external verifiers and consultants assessing project credibility.
  • Transaction & Brokerage Fees – Additional costs from brokers or middlemen facilitating sales.
  • These accumulated fees reduce the financial support that reaches the actual project proponents, limiting their ability to scale initiatives and create meaningful impact.
