The Gold Standard Marketplace
Supporting climate action and sustainable development
Purchasing Carbon Credits Gold Standard-certified carbon credits fund climate protection projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions AND create sustainable development benefits for the communities that need it most. Each Gold Standard project has a verified contribution to at least three of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.
We all have an impact on the planet – businesses, governments, individuals – and we can all play a part on the journey towards a more sustainable world. Proceeds from carbon credit purchases go to project developers, enabling them to maintain and expand their projects and deliver more impact.
You will receive a unique certificate by email. This will contain a link to the Gold Standard Impact Registry where your credits will have been retired for transparency. The Gold Standard-certified carbon credits you purchase will be retired by Gold Standard so that they cannot be recirculated or resold. They are therefore non-refundable.
Gold Standard requires organisations that purchase $10,000 or more in credits (either in one or multiple purchases within the past 12 months) to complete our ‘Approved Buyer’ registration form before an invoice can be issued. For orders of over $10,000 please contact melanie.knight@goldstandard.org.
