RSPO Credits Trading


What are RSPO Credits?

Producers who are certified sustainable are eligible for RSPO credits for each metric tonne of sustainable oil produced. The producer trades these credits on the RSPO trading platform. MOI purchases and redeems these credits through the RSPO platform for product produced to support sustainable palm oil. This process enables the producer to receive a premium for their sustainable crop, which in turn helps to create a market for sustainable palm oil.
