Baltic Sea Card tracked through Aland Index

Ålandsbanken (The Bank of Aland) in Finland has won a Cyber Grand Prix for the Baltic Sea Card, a biodegradable credit card linking spending patterns with impact on the environment. Ålandsbanken worked with MasterCard and KPMG to develop the Aland Index, calculating the environmental impact of each credit card transaction, based on general data from business partners, the financial markets and category codes. Each month a carbon footprint report is sent to customers, along with options for compensating for it through behaviour changes or donating to local or global initiatives. Over time customers are able to track their impact on the environment through comparative statistics. As sustainable change is created in collaboration not only with clients, the bank launched the innovation for free to any bank interested in balancing the score.
