Payment solution provider Ecommpay teams up with ekko to integrate ecological responsibility within transactions
In a groundbreaking move, Ecommpay has partnered with sustainability-focused tech business ekko to bring environmental consciousness to the checkout process. This integration empowers businesses to meet rising sustainability expectations without compromising on speed, security, or user experience.
By embedding ekko into its Hosted Payment Page, Ecommpay offers merchants a post-purchase sustainability feature without adding complexity or friction. This partnership brings sustainability to the checkout in an intuitive, measurable, and scalable way.
According to research conducted by IMRG, a further 15.8% of consumers would choose a retailer supporting environmental charities. Over 70% of consumers are more likely to shop with a retailer demonstrating sustainability efforts, and more than half (59.5%) often or always choose to shop with environmentally friendly retailers.
Oli Cook, CEO and co-founder of ekko, believes that payments are a powerful moment for climate action. He stated, "We're excited to partner with Ecommpay to make sustainable choices more accessible and actionable at the point of sale."
The integration of ekko's features into Ecommpay's Hosted Payment Page enables merchants to offer consumers a simple, post-purchase sustainability option that helps reduce environmental impact. Consumers can offset the carbon footprint of their purchases directly during checkout or post-purchase, thereby raising awareness and potentially influencing more eco-conscious shopping behavior.
The key impacts of this integration include:
- Environmental Impact Reduction: Ekko's climate tools embedded in the payment process allow consumers to contribute to sustainability efforts seamlessly. By doing so, it enables the measurement and offsetting of carbon emissions linked to each transaction, promoting greener payment behavior.
- Consumer Behavior Influence: Offering this sustainability feature at checkout or post-purchase nudges consumers toward more responsible consumption by making the environmental cost visible and providing an easy way to mitigate it. This can enhance consumer engagement with sustainability and influence future shopping decisions to favor merchants with green initiatives.
- Ease of Integration and Adoption: The integration requires no major development or additional SDKs for merchants on Ecommpay's Hosted Payment Page, simplifying the deployment and increasing the likelihood of adoption. This accessibility ensures that more merchants can provide eco-friendly options to their customers without technical barriers.
Miranda McLean, chief marketing officer at Ecommpay, stated that there is a shift in consumer attitudes towards sustainability. She added, "We're proud to partner with ekko to make sustainable choices more accessible and actionable for our merchants and their customers."

The partnership aims to enable customers to turn everyday payments into measurable environmental impact. Ekko's tools provide real-time impact information of transactions and the opportunity to offset them.
