Did you know that an individual's dining choices can have a significant impact on the environment?

‍

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Up Coop Group to introduce a new sustainability feature in their apps. This feature empowers users to understand the climate impact of purchases made with employer meal vouchers—helping them make more informed, sustainable consumption choices.

‍

As the first solution of its kind in the employee benefits space, this initiative aligns with Up Coop’s broader mission: guiding users toward responsible consumption, supporting local businesses, and promoting sustainable food habits.

‍

Launching first in Belgium, users of the Monizze app can now view a carbon footprint for their meal voucher purchases - along with features to track changes over time and understand what the estimations mean.

‍

“With this pioneering initiative, we continue to fulfill Upcoop’s commitments, taking concrete action towards more responsible consumption and more sustainable food choices.” — Youssef Achour, CEO of the Up Coop Group

‍

“At Monizze, we don’t just innovate in for purchasing power – we shape a more responsible future. With this new feature in the app, we put technology at the service of our users by providing them with a clear estimate of the carbon footprint of their meal voucher purchases. This is a concrete step to help our users better understand the environmental impact of their daily actions and turn every transaction into a conscious choice. Innovation must be a driver for action – and this is just the beginning.” — Jean-Louis Van Houwe, CEO of Monizze
