What GreenFi’s Certifications Mean for You

When you're looking for financial services, trust and transparency are key. 

That's why at GreenFi, we're proud to hold several important certifications that show our commitment to both financial wellness and making a positive impact on the planet. 

Let's break down what these certifications mean and why they matter for our members.

1% for the Planet: Putting Our Money Where the Planet Is

Our 1% for the Planet certification is proof of our commitment to donating 1% of our annual revenue directly to environmental non-profits working to protect our planet. 

We’ve previously worked with partners like American Forests, where the GreenFi community helped plant 145,000 seedlings across 640+ acres of conifer forests across the burn scars in the Sierra Nevada National Forest. And we’re currently working with the Ocean Conservancy to help clean up our ocean, reduce plastic usage to help end our dependence on fossil fuels, and help prevent oil spills in the Arctic waters.

So, when you bank with GreenFi, you know you’re banking with a company helping fund real environmental action.

The Climate Label: Real Climate Action, Transparently

The Climate Label, from The Change Climate Project (formerly Climate Neutral), shows that we measure our greenhouse gas emissions, set targets to reduce them over time aligned with science-based recommendations, and fund climate action through investments to reduce our emissions or offset emissions through global projects . 

We're transparent about our carbon footprint, which was 3,357 tCO2e in 2024 (roughly equal to driving 749 gas-powered cars for one year). We fund a portfolio of projects to support climate solutions, including using recycled materials for debit cards and investing in forestry and renewable energy projects. 

We're also committed to reducing our emissions, with active plans to cut down on employee commuting, transition to renewable electricity, and implement low-carbon business travel policies. 

Certified B Corporation: Doing Business Better

Being a certified B Corporation means we meet high standards of verified performance, accountability, and transparency on factors from employee benefits and charitable giving to supply chain practices and input materials. 

Simply put, it means we operate our business responsibly and sustainably across all areas. 

GreenFi, under MFP Capital Group, Inc., became B Corp Certified in October 2024. Our overall B Impact Score is 95.7, which is much higher than the median score of 50.9 for ordinary businesses. 

Better Business Bureau (BBB) Accredited: Trust in Every Transaction

Our BBB accreditation reflects our commitment to operating with integrity and addressing customer concerns. We've been a BBB Accredited Business since July 15, 2025. 

FDIC Insured: Your Money is Safe and Sound

When you choose GreenFi Checking and Savings, your deposits are FDIC insured up to $1 million per depositor. 

This is a big deal because it means your money is protected by the U.S. government, giving you peace of mind while you're making a difference.
