This is absolutely mind- blowing, so see for yourself who we partnered with:

Through this partnership, we further refined our categorization methodologies to give customers a more accurate portrait of the impact of their spending habits.

It also turned out to be a quite a good year for award nominations. We are humbled to know that our mission is resonating. It drives us to reach even higher in the new year.  

We were nominated at the:

  • Emerging Payment Awards for “Best partnership initiative with b.yond”  
  • Banking Tech Awards in the category “FinTech of the Future”

First steps in the right direction

Tomorrow Launch  

A milestone in the history of ecolytiq was reached this summer. With the launch of our first customer, Hamburg-based Tomorrow bank took a huge step forward in becoming just that – the bank of tomorrow. This huge accomplishment has meant that 2021 saw the first customers empowered with ecolytiq’s environmental transparency. They are taking steps every day to reduce their impact.  

This only paves the way for more exciting news and milestones that we have coming in the new year. For those new to ecolytiq, we are excited to have you onboard. For those who have been with us for a while, we thank you for your ongoing support. A problem as big as climate change needs  action from the not the few but rather of the many. And our community is an important part of that bigger puzzle.  

Looking back on 2021, it was a hectic, fast-paced and incredibly successful year for us.  

If next year is any indication of what is to come, then the future is looking bright.

We at ecolytiq wish you, our partners, clients, and supporters happy holidays and can’t wait to start fresh in 2022!
