Bristol Pound
Bristol Pound is currently in the process of transitioning to a new financial product, that will be called Bristol Pay. The Bristol Pound local currency was launched in 2012 and quickly became the UK's largest complementary currency. It focused on encouraging people to shop with local independent businesses, and on encouraging those businesses to localise their supply chains. We've learned a lot from running the currency for 8 years, and we feel that now is the time to address some of the wider issues we face, by operating at scale and encouraging people to engage with each other and the city's problems through a completely new sort of complementary currency or token. Bristol Pay will be an e-wallet platform for the whole city. We want to make a form of digital money that is truly accessible to everyone. We want to operate at scale so that we can channel surpluses from transaction charges back into funding social and environmental projects across the city. We want to experiment with tokens to encourage the development of the sharing economy, and to engage people with changing their lifestyles to address the issues in Bristol's One City Plan - like being a carbon neutral city by 2030. Together we can create a money system that is part of the solution in creating an economy that works for people and planet.
