摘要: French startup Green-Got is building an alternative to your traditional bank account with a focus on climate change. Essentially, Green-Got guarantees that your savings and the money that is sitting in your bank account aren’t going to finance fossil fuel projects and other polluting industries.
The startup recently raised a $5.5 million (€5 million) funding round led by Pale Blue Dot. The community of Green-Got’s customers contributed nearly €2 million to this funding round. Green-Got managed its equity crowdfunding campaign through Crowdcube with around 1,300 investors.
As a neobank, Green-Got doesn’t want to stand out when it comes to its feature set. Clients can create an account using Green-Got’s mobile app in just a few minutes. They get a current account with a French account number. A few days later, they receive a debit card.
That card works with Apple Pay and Google Pay. And the startup doesn’t charge any foreign transaction fee on top of Mastercard’s exchange rate. Every time you make a purchase with your card, you receive a push notification on your phone in just a few seconds.
In other words, Green-Got ticks all the right boxes when it comes to providing the basic banking features. “We’re providing the best features from Revolut and N26 that have convinced many users, but at the same time you have the best of impact finance,” co-founder and CMO Maud Caillaux told me.
