The world's most trusted
carbon credit exchange
The carbon market has a fraud problem.
Blockchain is the permanent cure.
The voluntary carbon market lost credibility — and billions — to double-counting, greenwashing, and opaque registries. Major investigations exposed that up to 90% of some registry's credits were phantom offsets. Corporate buyers got burned. The market contracted 70% in 2024. EcoCreditHub was built because blockchain immutability is the only structural solution — not better spreadsheets, not more auditors. Mathematics.
Three audiences.
One platform.
Meet your net-zero targets with provably real credits
Your CFO, ESG committee, and shareholders have one question: are these credits real? Every credit is satellite-verified, independently audited by accredited VVBs, and permanently retired on Polygon blockchain. Your retirement certificate links to an immutable on-chain record your auditors can verify independently.
Reach global buyers in 47 countries. Zero brokers.
Traditional MRV costs eat 20–30% of your revenue before you earn a dollar. EcoCreditHub's satellite verification layer cuts that cost by up to 80%. Register your project, satellite verification via Planet Labs imagery and Chainlink IoT oracle integration, and your credits are minted on-chain and listed globally within 21 days.
Infrastructure play in a $47.5B market with no dominant player
The VCM contracted 70% in 2024 due to fraud scandals. Now recovering — Article 6.4 operationalization at COP29 is expected to grow demand fivefold by 2030. J.P. Morgan, BlackRock, and Visa have all moved into blockchain carbon and stablecoin infrastructure. EcoCreditHub is positioned to own the registry and exchange layer globally.
Six capabilities no other
registry offers together
Each capability addresses a specific failure mode of the traditional carbon market. Together they form infrastructure that is structurally fraud-proof and Article 6 compliant from day one.
Satellite MRV verification
Planet Labs and Sentinel-2 imagery confirms every land-based project from orbit, updated every 30 days. IoT sensors feed live biomass and soil carbon data via Chainlink oracles directly into smart contracts. Cuts MRV costs by up to 80%. No more $50K manual audits for developers in Kenya or Brazil.
Blockchain-native registry
Every credit minted as an ERC-1155 token on Polygon. Full provenance locked on-chain: GPS, vintage, methodology, VVB auditor signature, satellite imagery hash, additionality score, BeZero/Sylvera rating, CCP status, CORSIA eligibility. Immutable. Public. Permanently auditable by anyone.
Open eBay-style exchange
Fixed-price listings, live auctions, futures pre-sales, secondary market, and offtake agreements. Real price discovery for the first time in the VCM. Filter by standard, credit type, vintage, additionality score, CCP-alignment, CORSIA eligibility, BeZero rating, and SDG impact.
Provable token burn on retirement
When a buyer retires credits, the ERC-1155 token is permanently burned — sent to a null address. The burn transaction hash is your Corresponding Adjustment record under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. Satisfies both voluntary and compliance market requirements. Mathematically impossible to re-issue.
Instant digital dollar settlement
Smart contracts split payment automatically — 80% to developer, 15% ECH fee, 5% verification fund. Settlement in ~8 seconds via USDC on Polygon. The same digital dollar infrastructure used by Visa for institutional settlement and managed by BlackRock. A developer in Ghana gets paid instantly.
ESG reporting & grant pipeline
Generate CSRD-ready, SBTi-aligned ESG reports in one click — blockchain retirement links, CO₂e equivalencies, BeZero ratings, board-ready documentation. ECH also facilitates climate grant applications (USDA, DOE, Green Climate Fund, World Bank) for verified projects at 3–5% facilitation fee.

47 countries.
One registry.
From Amazonian REDD+ projects to West Texas wind farms to Kenyan cookstoves — ECH connects developers in the world's most carbon-rich regions with corporate buyers meeting net-zero commitments globally.
As Paris Agreement Article 6.4 (PACM) operationalizes through 2025–2026, ECH's on-chain Corresponding Adjustment records position us as the infrastructure layer for both voluntary AND compliance cross-border carbon trading — exactly what the Oxford Energy Institute identified as the next demand step-change.
Invest in the infrastructure layer
of the global carbon market
The VCM is recovering from its 2024 contraction and entering a compliance-driven expansion. Article 6.4 operationalization at COP29 is expected to increase annual demand fivefold by 2030. The market is projected at $47.5B by 2035 at 38% CAGR. No dominant blockchain registry exists. EcoCreditHub is raising $3M to own that position permanently.

Everything you need to know
about buying carbon credits
Questions from corporate sustainability officers, project developers, and institutional investors. The carbon market has jargon — we explain it plainly.
Key terms every buyer
needs to know
The carbon market has specific terminology. Understanding these terms helps you make better purchasing decisions and avoid greenwashing risk.
Carbon reductions that would not have occurred without the carbon credit revenue. The most critical quality criterion — and the primary reason for market fraud scandals.
A mechanism under Article 6 of the Paris Agreement ensuring credits are not double-counted between a project's host country and the buying country. ECH stores these on-chain permanently.
The year the carbon reduction or removal occurred. Recent vintages (2023–2025) command a 217% premium over older vintages as buyers prioritize current projects.
Accredited third-party auditor (DNV, SGS, Bureau Veritas, TÜV SÜD) that independently verifies a project meets its claimed emission reductions before credits are issued.
The ongoing process of measuring emission reductions, reporting data, and verifying accuracy. Traditional MRV costs 20–30% of revenue. ECH satellite MRV costs 3–6%.
ICAO-approved carbon credits airlines can use to offset international flight emissions. Only credits from specific ICAO-approved registries (Verra VCS, ACR) qualify.
Removal credits extract CO₂ from the atmosphere (reforestation, DAC, blue carbon). Reduction credits avoid emissions. Removal credits command a 381% premium and are preferred for net-zero claims.
How long the carbon storage lasts. DAC provides 1,000+ year geological storage. Forest credits carry reversal risk and require buffer pools. A key ICVCM Core Carbon Principle.
Credits from projects that reduce tropical deforestation below a business-as-usual baseline. The most common VCM credit type — and the subject of most recent fraud scandals.
A multi-year purchase contract (3–25 years) committing to buy set credit volumes at a fixed or indexed price. Microsoft's 7M tonne, 25-year reforestation deal is the benchmark.
When the same emission reduction is claimed by multiple parties. The primary cause of carbon market fraud. Blockchain token burn makes double-counting mathematically impossible on ECH.
The framework for international carbon trading. Article 6.2 covers bilateral trading. Article 6.4 (PACM) covers the UN-supervised mechanism operationalized at COP29 in 2024, expected to drive 5x demand growth.
