Solidarity : Retreeb's Impact in Tours

The revolution of responsible and engaged payments

In the picturesque city of Tours, a silent yet powerful revolution is underway. The responsible payment application, Retreeb, has captured the hearts of merchants and citizens, giving rise to an unprecedented movement of social and environmental engagement. With already 85 merchants on board and over 1,500 enthusiastic users, Retreeb stands out as a model of success in the region.

Supporting local merchants, supporting the community

The essence of Retreeb lies in its commitment to the local community and the economic fabric of Tours. Recognizing the profound impact that small businesses have on the vibrancy and diversity of the city, the founders of Retreeb have created a platform that goes beyond simple transactions. By redirecting 33% of the fees collected from merchants to associations with social and environmental projects chosen by users, Retreeb is redefining the meaning of payment.

Each of the 85 local businesses that has adopted Retreeb is not merely offering a product or service, but becoming an engaged partner in the social fabric of Tours. It's a partnership where each transaction becomes an act of solidarity, strengthening the bonds between merchants and citizens and creating a more supportive economic ecosystem.

Enrollment for transformation

The growing enrollment in Retreeb among the citizens of Tours is tangible proof of the power of collective engagement. With over 1,500 registered users, the solution is attracting an increasing number of individuals who share a common vision : a fairer and more sustainable future. Each registration becomes a drop in the pool of social transformation, with each user becoming a driver of change simply by using the application.

The snowball effect of this enrollment cannot be ignored. Each new user signifies not only an increase in transactions via Retreeb but also an expansion of collective awareness for more responsible and supportive way of life.

"Solidarity Luggage" : The power of collaboration

Among the remarkable achievements of Retreeb in Tours, the funding of the "Solidarity luggage" by the La Barque association stands out. This initiative embodies the power of collaboration between merchants, users, and local associations. Thanks to the funds generated through transactions made via Retreeb, the "Solidarity Luggage" can provide essential support to vulnerable individuals in the community. This demonstrates that even seemingly small actions have the potential to catalyze significant positive change.

"Mobility for all" project : Concrete support from Retreeb and Utopia 56

Retreeb is providing financial support to offer accessible transportation solutions, thereby enhancing the quality of life for those who need it most. This partnership underscores the significance of tangible actions to create a positive impact, while reflecting Retreeb's social responsibility and its commitment to making a meaningful difference in individual's lives.
