"Our mission is to reduce 1GT of CO2 from the air by funding clean energy projects."
We started Dyme because we love travel, a good deal, and the planet!
But we found ourselves wondering why doing right by the planet was at odds with doing what we enjoy doing with the brands we trust at a good price. After all, what if we took a dime every single time we shopped and put all those dimes towards reducing the impact of global warming? That would sure make a massive collective difference.
As it turns out, every time you shop—whether for gear, gifts, hotels, or flights —various rebates and commissions are paid that you never see. These may be bulk discounts that result in lower prices (like Costco) or commissions paid to help distribute a product (like Google). There were our dimes for the planet!
Dyme was born with the idea that we’d combine the best of discounts and commissions—we’d give you the best possible prices and use our commissions to help reduce climate change. So, our members would never have to pay extra for doing something good for future generations.
And we’re not alone in believing that a good deal can actually be good. With Dyme, you can book with over two million of our exceptional hotel partners around the globe. We get you the best rate and use our commissions to balance out your stay’s carbon emissions. And when you’re not traveling, you can shop with us or give gift cards (not more stuff!), and we’ll apply the same principles.
We wanted Dyme to be a platform where each dime makes a lasting impact on reducing climate change – a generational change. We love trees, but they take a while to grow – and it is better not to put CO2 into the air than try to absorb it! We don’t so much like carbon offsets because there are so many variations and hand on heart, we couldn’t really say they led to net new reductions in emissions. But we think putting those dimes to work in clean energy makes a lasting difference.
Today, they create jobs and give communities access to much cheaper energy than ever possible.
And because we’re not burning coal or gas, there are no emissions. Best of all, these projects last for 30 years, leaving a lasting impact.
Come travel with us – seeing the world and each other is a good thing. And one good thing begets another good thing: when you travel with Dyme, we’ll make sure you get the best hotel rates, the best support, and the best shopping and gifting deals, all while knowing that each time you spend with us, you’re doing a little bit more to help make the world a better place for generations that follow us.
