How it works

From first conversation
to carbon neutral — in 24 hours.

No consultants, no audits, no months of preparation. Three simple steps — and you receive your certificate, logos, and social media assets the same day you pay.

The process

Three steps.
Done by tomorrow.

Most companies are fully set up within 24 hours of their first conversation with us. Here is exactly how it works.

01

Tell us your numbers

How many employees does your company have? How many company vehicles? What is your monthly website traffic? That is all we need to calculate your annual price.

If you do not have exact numbers, no problem — we use recognised national averages as a starting point. You can refine at renewal.

Takes about 5 minutes
02

Receive your invoice

We send you a clear annual invoice by email with a secure credit card payment link. One fixed price, no hidden fees, no setup costs.

Green Circle is an internationally registered company — all services are invoiced without VAT as exported services. Your accounting team will appreciate the clean documentation.

Invoice sent same day
03

Start communicating

Within 24 hours of payment, you receive your Certificate of Carbon Neutrality, all logos, badges, banners, and social media images — delivered digitally, ready to use immediately.

Post on LinkedIn the same day. Add the badge to your website footer. Attach the banner to your email signature. Everything is formatted and ready.

What you receive

A certificate worth
putting on the wall.

Your Certificate of Carbon Neutrality is issued personally with your company name, the program scope, and the year of issue. It is a real document — suitable for ESG reports, investor presentations, partner proposals, and public communications.

Backed by certified global climate projects Every certificate is supported by participation in Gold Standard or Verra VCS certified projects.
Renewed annually Your certificate is reissued each year with updated dates. Your status is continuous as long as you renew.
Comes with 6 badge variants Logos, icons, email banners, and social media assets — all formatted and ready to use the same day.
Communicating your status

What you can say.
And what to avoid.

We take the greenwashing risk seriously. Here is exactly what is supported by your Green Circle program — and what goes beyond what we can document.

Approved — you can say this
"Our employees are carbon neutral through participation in certified global sustainability initiatives."
"Our company vehicles are carbon neutral — powered by Green Circle."
"Our website is carbon neutral — certified by Green Circle."
"We are a Carbon Neutral Partner — verified by Green Circle."
"We contribute to certified global climate projects through our Green Circle membership."
Avoid — this goes beyond what we cover
"We are carbon-free."Carbon-free means zero emissions — not what this program covers.
"We have achieved net-zero."Net-zero requires a full lifecycle assessment and long-term science-based targets.
"We are EU certified / UN certified."Green Circle programs are not government-certified — and we never claim they are.
"Our entire company is carbon neutral."Green Circle covers defined scopes — employees, transport, or website — not full organisational emissions.
"We exactly offset our emissions tonne-for-tonne."We neutralise above benchmark — but we do not calculate exact individual emissions.
Process questions

Still have questions?
We have answers.

What if I don't know my exact employee count?
No problem at all. We use your best estimate and apply recognised national averages where needed. You can update your numbers at annual renewal — there is no penalty for adjusting up or down.
Can I start with one program and add more later?
Absolutely. Many companies start with employees and add transport or website at renewal. Each program is invoiced separately so you can mix and match without any complications.
How is payment handled?
We send an invoice by email with a secure credit card payment link. Payment is annual, in advance. All invoices are issued without VAT — Green Circle is an internationally registered company and services are invoiced as exported services.
What happens at renewal?
Your Green Circle contact reaches out before your annual renewal date to review your current scope and confirm the next year's numbers. Your certificate and all assets are reissued with updated dates. Renewal takes less than 10 minutes.
