Last year, Telr and Fils teamed up to introduce an end-to-end sustainable infrastructure to the payment gateway.
This integration allows merchants to monitor their carbon emissions and engage with voluntary carbon markets to offset environmental impact.
It also provides reporting features to showcase their environmental contributions, reducing greenwashing and promoting investment in sustainable initiatives through Fils’ marketplace.
