This card has nudged me towards better choices

Got this card a couple of months ago, the app is easy to use and tracking carbon footprint is a genius idea. I've already made better choices like using public transport more often than I used to, which has also been helpful in saving on those taxi rides I was tempted to take when feeling lazy.

Emails and customer support forum very helpful in informing you beforehand what functions are available or developing. I love that their blog is open and honest about their roadmap and what you can and can't at each stage of its development

We're really keen to introduce features like direct debits, Apple/Google Pay, and paying into other bank accounts as soon as possible, as we know this will allow customers to get the most out of Tred 🌍🌳 Thanks for your ongoing support and patience with us as we work on developing these features 💚

Love my Tred account for tracking the carbon impact of my purchases - both from Tred and my other cards. With offsetting I can feel like I’m doing a bit for the environment.

The best!

The best. I’ve used other eco friendly banks in the past and this is by far the best one. Customer support has been unbelievably efficient; you wouldn’t think the app is still in beta status.

Had a couple issues like any bank, but all sorted the same day and explained fully.

Emails sent before the app goes into maintenance, giving you enough time to sort any money you’d need during this period (and always early hours of the morning where people wouldn’t really be using their card, so customers unaffected).

Will update my review in time, but so far, amazing and would definitely recommend.

(Also received wilder flower seeds from the company simply for using my card so much! Such a nice gesture!!)

Thanks again!

Hi William 👋 Thanks for leaving a review! We're really excited to introduce some big features in the next few months that we think will make Tred more useful, such as linking your other accounts to Tred, Google/Apple Pay, and making transfers out. We really appreciate your patience and support in these early stages of our development where we're still improving our debit card and app 🌍🌳

Great company to support

Been using the Tred card for a few months now which has worked well. The app is easy to use and new features are being added all the time. The customer help has been very quick and knowledgeable. Also great to support a small ethical company trying to make a difference and support the environment, which sadly is not a common theme in financial services.

Love everything about this card. I’m learning where my spending habits have most impact, how and where to reduce that impact…and I’ll be planting trees as I go. The app is well laid out and simple to navigate.

Direct debit and tree plant card.

Only used card twice once online once in shop ,then found had been cloned. So cost me £5.99 new card. Lucky you can freeze and request pin code before any payments taken. Great service thanks for saving the planet.

Delayed launch, ropey app experience, mean customer support

Delayed launch, taking multiple payment for transactions, flakey app experience and passive aggressive customer support.

The issues with Tred seem deep routed in their culture and roadmap.

As I’ve kept using the app, the experience has further degraded, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

Hello, we can't find you in our system so please message us on support@tred.earth for help with this🌳 Most transfers into bank accounts will arrive immediately or within 2 hours.

Great experience so far

So far it's been a really good experience with tred.
There has been a few hiccups but that is to be expected with a new company.
All issues have been resolved quickly by the team and the app is user friendly and easy.
If you care about the environment and want to offset your carbon footprint then don't hesitate to sign up!

Loving my TRED card so far

Loving my TRED card so far! Set up was super easy, the app works really well and gives an immediate indication of the carbon footprint of all my purchases. It's already making me think differently about my purchasing habits, and being able to offset any CO2, by planting trees, is a bonus (and not a gimmick, they are conscientious about this!). When I have needed to contact customer support, they have been excellent; friendly, attentive and taking time to give me personalised answers to my queries. I even got some travel tips when contacting them from my holiday in the Lakes - Grasmere Gingerbread was a great shout!!! Highly recommend this card & the team behind it !
