Amazing Paper Savings thanks to BPAY View

Paper Savings made from the increased uptake of BPAY View

BPAY, in conjunction with Planet Ark, has developed the BPAY View Paper Saver Calculator, enabling individuals to calculate how much paper they can save by registering their bills with BPAY View. The calculator also shows how much paper and associated products have been saved since January 2007 from the total BPAY View registrations. Check out the unbelievable savings since January 2007!

  • 31,495,000 sheets of paper
  • 21,650,000 envelopes

This equates to a saving of:

  • 4,435 trees
  • Enough energy to power 70 homes for a year
  • The green house gas emissions from the running of 96 cars for a year
  • Enough water to fill 87 large domestic swimming pools

It is incredibly positive that Billers who offer BPAY View are contributing to these environmental savings. Registrations increased by an incredible 73% (550,000) in 2009 and the number of bill presentments also increased by 88% over this period.
