Our mission to become the most trusted digital receipt standard in Australia, has been fuelled by our long-term objective to reduce the environmental impact of the 10.6 billion paper receipts in circulation inAustralia every year. It’s this mission that led to the launch of FutureProof, an industry-led initiative aimed at transforming the way Australian’s receive and manage receipts, and something that breathes into everything we do here at Slyp.
