Correos has become the first non-financial partner and EML the
first fintech to join the initiative in Spain. The commitment is to
plant a tree for each new Correos Prepago card. These cards will be
made with recycled PVC, a material that has been recovered and
transformed with the purpose of being reused. In this way, Correos
is contributing to putting ECO means of payment into circulation
and demonstrating its commitment to sustainability and the future
of our planet.
''Mastercard is committed to building a more inclusive and
sustainable digital economy, where people, communities and the
planet can thrive. We are delighted to welcome EML and Correos to
our Priceless Planet Coalition, who share our commitment to being a
force for good in the world to unite in action and create
exponential impact for the environment,'' stated Paloma Real,
Country Manager at Mastercard Spain.
''We’re honoured to continue to work directly with our
longstanding client in Spain, Correos, and Mastercard Spain, to
achieve our goal of planting 15,000 trees. Helping to ensure the
wellbeing of the planet is a major focus of our corporate
environmental responsibility,'' expressed David Curneen, Group
COO at EML.
Together, EML and Correos are committed to a more sustainable
economy and improving the planet through innovative eco payment
card options; recyclable and degradable PVC and coming soon -
recovered ocean plastics.
Launched in January 2020 by Mastercard, the Priceless Planet
Coalition works alongside forestry and climate change expert
organisations such as Conservation International (CI) and the World
Resources Institute (WRI). In many regions, Priceless Planet
Coalition partners are launching two types of campaigns: One in
which the partners donate on behalf of consumers and the other in
which consumers can make their own donations.
