Transaction-based CO₂ calculations
The Carbon Footprint Manager is an add-on module for the AI Personal Finance Manager (PFM). It analyses all transaction data and calculates the corresponding carbon footprint (key figure: kilograms of CO₂ emissions in relation to the transaction amount in CHF). It calculates an individual’s carbon footprint based on transactions and sets their personal CO₂ consumption in relation to the Swiss average.
High-quality Swiss climate data



Understanding and improving CO₂ consumption
We use more than 90 data sources and methods to calculate an individual’s CO₂ footprint. CO₂ consumption can be broken down by month or year and is automatically assigned to one of the following categories: Food, Home, Travel & Transport, Shopping, and Health & Leisure.

In everyday practice
Consumers want to act, shop, and live in a more sustainable manner. One particularly effective approach is for banks to support their customers in taking action against climate change themselves.
With the CO₂ Footprint Manager, you pick up your customers exactly where they are, namely in their private account that reflects their own consumption.
As a solid foundation
The CO₂ calculations are based on Swiss climate data. The calculated CO₂ results serve as a solid foundation for an effective assessment of one’s own CO₂ consumption.
The Swiss database allows users to see how their carbon footprint compares to the Swiss average. Positive feedback helps with the self-assessment and encourages users to reduce their personal emissions in the long term.
For additional products
The Carbon Footprint Manager enables customers to implement their sustainability goals in a concrete way and allows you to target customer interests with sustainable product suggestions, thus creating new cross-selling potential.
Analyse the carbon footprint of third-party banks
Third-party accounts at third-party banks can also be integrated, provided that the multibanking option is used by the respective bank.
The transactions are automatically divided into the carbon footprint categories Food, Home, Travel & Transport, Shopping, and Health & Leisure and are also aggregated via the third-party accounts.
