About Us

2+ Years of Operation

Trashcoin is a digital Waste Management platform that combines sustainability and eco-fintech to recover recyclable waste from communities in African countries. The platform provides an opportunity for individuals to deposit recyclable waste directly into their digital wallets and receive credit that can be withdrawn as cash or used to purchase essential services like electricity, health insurance, education fees, and mobile data. This innovative solution is modeled after Germany’s plastic deposit refund system and aims to address the issue of poor quality supply between Africa and the European market.

Plastic to Purpose: Transforming Lives

Our solution aims to reduce waste pollution and its impact on the environment and climate. By collecting and recycling waste, we are able to save Over 750 tons of CO2 per month, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable planet.

From Waste to Wealth: Social Impact Initiative

We are committed to creating social impact by integrating informal waste collectors into our value chain, creating employment opportunities, and sensitizing the public about the dangers of non-biodegradable plastic. Through our system, we can empower street kids to work with us by collecting plastic bottles and returning them to collection points, providing them with a source of income and reducing their reliance on begging or resorting to violence. This creates a platform for us to engage with them and create awareness about sensitive issues and their general welfare. Ultimately, this benefits everyone in the country and beyond.

Cleaning Up Africa, One Bottle at a Time

Our approach to achieving environmental impact is centered around ensuring a clean environment free from plastics, litter, diseases, and other forms of pollution. By prioritizing the collection and recycling of these stray plastic bottles, we can make Africa cities cleaner and more beautiful. We also aim to remove plastic bottles as a problem threatening the cleanliness and beauty of our cities by collecting and recycling them from dumpsites.
