French startup Green-Got raised €5M ($5.4M) in a funding round

 

French startup Green-Got raised €5M ($5.4M) in a funding round, with almost €2M ($2.2M) contributed by its community of customers through an equity crowdfunding campaign.   The startup is a neo-bank focusing on climate change, ensuring that customers' savings and funds in their accounts are not invested in fossil fuel projects or other polluting industries.  Green-Got offers standard banking features, allowing clients to open an account through the mobile app and receive a debit card that works alongside Apple Pay and Google Pay.  The company offers no free tier and charges a €6 per month subscription model to hold an account, noting they already have 13,000 paid customers. This move comes at a time when many consumers, specifically Gen Z, are increasingly focused on the environmental impact of their spending and investments.
