Planet Cents, Inc., (a DE PBC,) (a seed-stage startup,) will be the global B2B2C/B2C sustainable products and services marketplace, utilizing sustainable purchasing to reverse climate change while giving organizations a way to attract and retain customers, employees, investors, partners, and suppliers. Our platform uses a patented algorithm that displays environmental impact scores for each product. (Video intro.: https://youtu.be/YpiOTWK706A) (www.PlanetCents.us)

Our sellers in our marketplace will include sustainable product and service providers, including existing sustainable marketplaces. Sellers may also license our SaaS to display environmental impact scores for their products on their own websites.

Organizational clients use the offerings in our marketplace as benefits, gifts, incentives, recognition, and rewards, as well as engagement, team-building, and training tools. They may offer these to customers, employees, partners, and/or suppliers, and each may share them similarly. This broad reach ensures the scalability of our model, which is attractive to investors. This rapid ability to scale allows us to cause a significant retreat from our global climate crisis.
