What Tinggly is doing for the planet

A quick summary of Tinggly's environmental work, followed by proof, partner links, and certificates for visitors who want to go deeper. The idea is simple: choose gifts that create stories, not waste.

  • 1% for the Planet

    In 2022 Tinggly became a certified Environmental Partner and gives back 1% of all sales, not profits.

  • Tree planting

    Every gift helps support tree planting and protection projects, with 525,606 trees planted since 2022.

  • 200% CO2 offset

    Experience-generated emissions and Tinggly's business footprint are offset at 200%, with certificates available below.

  • Delivery footprint

    Gift Box delivery impact is addressed through transport partners, including DHL GoGreen Plus.

  • Responsible materials

    Physical gift boxes use FSC-certified materials, with packaging certificates available for review.

  • Plastic reduction

    From Bali trash traps to Plastic Bank, Tinggly has supported projects that remove and reduce plastic waste.

  • 1% for the Planet member

    In 2022 Tinggly became a certified Environmental Partner of 1% for the Planet, an alliance of businesses committed to protecting the natural environment.

    That means 1% of every sale goes to environmental causes, helping turn gifting into a small but consistent source of support for the planet.

    Trees planted and protected

    Together with partners, Tinggly has supported tree planting and protection projects in Haiti, Madagascar, Nepal, Kenya and elsewhere, including work with Eden Reforestation Project. Since 2026, Tinggly is working with Veritree to continue the journey in Senegal.

  • Up to 40 trees per gift

    How the tree program works

    Since 2022, Tinggly has helped fund tree planting and protection projects in places such as Haiti, Madagascar, Nepal, and Kenya, including projects with Eden Reforestation Project. Since 2026, Tinggly continues this work with Veritree in Senegal.

    When someone buys a Tinggly gift box, at least 1% of the gift price goes toward planting and protecting trees.

Offsetting experience-generated CO2 by 200%

CO2 information is split into two clear cards: one for customer experiences and one for Tinggly's own business footprint. Both point toward certificates rather than hiding proof inside long paragraphs.

  • 200% per experience

    Experience CO2 offsetting

    Every booked experience can create travel or activity-related emissions. Tinggly offsets that impact by 200%, based on offset studies by Katalista Ventures, later Planet Positive Ventures.

    From 2020 onward, certificates are tied to the United Nations carbon offset platform.

  • 200% company footprint

    Business CO2 offsetting

    Tinggly also offsets emissions from office energy, data storage, commuting, work travel, and testing experiences around the world.

    For every pound of carbon Tinggly puts into the atmosphere, two pounds are removed or offset through verified projects.

  • DHL green transport electric delivery vehicles
  • Delivery footprint

    Tinggly Gift Boxes are delivered around the world, so transport impact matters. Tinggly works with delivery partners like DHL to reduce and offset delivery-related emissions through DHL GoGreen Plus.

  • Materials: eco-friendly physical gift boxes

    Some customers still love handing over a physical gift box. Tinggly keeps that experience polished while using FSC-certified materials designed to reduce harm to forests and local communities.

    Packaging certificates are available in the certificate library below.

Reducing waste before it reaches the ocean

Tinggly's plastic work includes Bali river trash traps and a 2018-2021 Plastic Bank program that removed polluting plastics for every physical gift sold.

    How Tinggly experience gifts are cleaning the planet

    See how Tinggly's team helped install river trash traps in Bali to stop plastic waste before it reaches the ocean. The project shows how experience gifts can support practical environmental action, from local partnerships to hands-on cleanup work.

  • Bali initiative

    Installing Tinggly Trash Traps in Bali

    In 2019, Tinggly helped install river trash traps in Bali to stop harmful plastics from entering the ocean in the first place.

  • 2018-2021 program

    Removing polluting plastics for every gift sold

    For every physical Tinggly gift purchased during this program, Tinggly removed 11 lbs, or 5 kg, of polluting plastics from oceans, rivers, and lakes.

Verified impact & certificates

Certificates and partner references are grouped by topic so visitors can quickly verify CO2 offsetting, packaging materials, plastic removal, and partner documentation.
