Worried about all the waste generated by paper receipts? According to Elizabeth Rogers, author of “The Green Book”, just a year worth of ATM receipts alone can circle the earth 15 times. Now, imagine
the negative impact all paper receipts have on the environment. From grocery shopping receipts to restaurant checks, most receipts end up in landfills all over the world if not recycled properly. Here at Vertway, we are also very concerned with this growing environmental issue. In fact, it was one of the driving factors that gave birth to our company.
On the other hand, we are extremely excited about the future. We are currently working on our first digital receipt service which main goal is to considerably reduce the amount of paper waste generated from paper receipts. By offering consumers the chance to access their receipts in a central and secure website, we will be eliminating the need to print receipts. This will not only improve the way people collect and manage receipts but also will make a positive impact in our planet. One retailer and one consumer at a time we will start the green receipt revolution. Help us make a difference in our planet.
