It could be great to have different choices of badges. Like a mini one (as you can see on this website for exemple ) https://voited.fr/products/ripstop-outdoor-blanket-ocean-navy-cameo-green Thank you. --- Thank you for your reply, but i don't see any planet on shopify dot com... and how to reach you ??? Let me know. Best Xavier
Thanks for the feedback! Good news – you can publish a Planet badge that looks virtually identical to the one on this page! Please reach out to planet at shopify dot com and we would be thrilled to get you set up. Thanks again!!

1. It charges you for every order--even POS orders which don't require shipping. 58% of my sales are in-store. Insanely unethical to automatically charge *shipping* offsets for *non-shipping* sales. 2. It seriously inflates your numbers. I made 640 sales in the last 30 days, and was charged for 907 orders. (again, about 370 of these orders didn't require shipping). 3. The history graph shows I had nearly 200 sales *in one day* a few weeks ago. I actually had 29...and only 6 of those required shipping...and only 5 of those had shipped at this point. So I paid nearly $0.15*200=$30 in carbon offsets for 5 shipments for that one day. 4. The app ambiguates "orders" and "deliveries". Per my Shopify reports, I only had 288 "deliveries" in the time it claimed I had 907. Shopify, these infractions erode what little trust people have in environmental practices. I am happy to remove this review if you refund my inflated fees...including Planet fees for all POS orders. My company has been carbon neutral for years, and will continue to be so for sometime thanks to the overages I've paid using Planet.
Thanks for reaching out. You definitely shouldn't be getting billed on POS orders and we will gladly refund you all of those charges. Our team has already reached out and we will get your bill and refund sorted asap.

Like all Shopify apps this one is a disaster. It's all marketing and no functionality. No way to turn it on/off in the cart and no way to talk to them. NO way to contact def - shopify support denied knowing anything about it and started explaining Planet Labs to be instead, a satellite company owned by my friends. FFS. No transparency about the payment tiers, the badge does NOT show up in my cart. Theres like so much info on Planet but nothing helpful and it doesn't work. What a waste of time.
Thanks for the feedback and sorry your experience with the app was so disappointing! We'd be happy to help you get the badge displayed in your cart, as well as show you where to find info about payment tiers, e.g., the companies and technologies you can support with different plans. If you're interested, please reach out to planet at shopify dot com. Thanks again.

Love the idea. Execution was challenging. Had installed for a couple of months without the badge showing - when I went to put badge on and it showed blank on my Shopify 2.0 theme I contacted support. I was initially told it should work on my specific theme but then on checking support concluded it was a theme problem and I need to contact the theme developer. Lost confidence when cute marketing stats on emmissions that show to me as Admin can't be shared with my customer or shown on a page on my website, for example - even if coded in. Took my money on each order for a couple of months worked fine. Payment trail very thoroughly done.
Thanks for the feedback. It actually IS possible to display those stats! You can do that by activating "Marketing mode" with the online store editor. Please reach out to planet at shopify dot com if you'd like to schedule a quick call to walk through that. Thanks again for reaching out!

Love the idea and transparency with HOW the shipment becomes carbon neutral! But I can't add it to my checkout because I have a custom website instead of a Shopify theme. :( I can still use it in cart as a workaround, but customers very rarely view their cart that way. Please update it to work on checkout for custom stores!
Thanks so much for using Planet and offering this feedback. We're actively exploring ways to enable Planet users to leverage checkout better. It's super helpful for us to know about limitations like this -- thanks again.

I really like this idea, but I was able to change my contribution amount/percentage from another source. Will there be an option to contribute a % of orders? I want to contribute more than 0.15 per order. Can I contact support to change my plan to change that contribution amount? Thank you! Samson
Thanks so much for the feedback! It's incredible that you're eager to have an even greater climate impact. This is a suggestion that we'll workshop and explore. We really appreciate your engagement and eagerness to move Shopify Planet forward.

The Millennium Package is a fantastic opportunity to make a meaningful impact on the world. This inspiring initiative provides a wonderful way for individuals to contribute positively to society. I am truly impressed by their efforts and I am excited to see the change they will bring to the world. I wholeheartedly support their endeavors and wish them all the success in their future endeavors.
We couldn't agree more – the Millennium plan projects are incredible! So are the awesome teams building them. Thanks so much for the feedback and for making commerce more sustainable. 💚

Lovely idea and opportunity to easily offer carbon neutral shipping, but the customizations on the app could be a lot better. For example we can't display the banner in our store because the translation (that we can't change) is so clumsy.
Thanks for the review and feedback. We're always looking for ways to improve the experience and impact of our badging. It's possible that your store theme doesn't support selling in multiple languages – to translate the Planet app badge, you need to use a theme that's compatible with selling in multiple languages. You can find further details on multilingual themes here: https://help.shopify.com/en/manual/markets/languages/manage-languages#add-new-language Thanks again for the feedback!

PLANET is an excellent application because it eliminates shipping costs and acts significantly with its plans and initiatives in favor of the environment for a long period of ten to a thousand years.
We really appreciate the feedback! Thanks so much!

It's a smart app designed to do something meaningful and useful for the environment we live in. Each of us can do our part with our way of life and daily habits.
Thanks so much for the feedback!

Great idea, but lacking in many fields. The "Alliance" plan clearly says: "Your customers can choose carbon-neutral shipping for $0.25 USD/order". This is not optional - even if your customer doesn't opt in for this, you will be charged the 0.25 USD extra. Pay attention, otherwise you will be charged much more than what you might have expected. If you want to go for the "Alliance" plan, you have to choose between displaying your contribution or asking the customer to choose carbon-neutral shipping - you can't have both. The option is also only presented on the product page, not in the checkout. EDIT: After changing my plan to Pioneer and having it set at 0.08 USD per order, I still get charged 0.33 USD per order. This is a hidden fee that we didn't agree to.
Thanks for installing Planet and taking the time to review the app. Planet users are never charged a flat fee of $0.25 USD per order. That is 100% optional. Also, Alliance users can indeed have both messages displayed to customers – one that says all orders are carbon neutral, and another that enables customers to add $0.25 USD to fund additional carbon removal. We'd love to help you get set up with the app, so please reach out at planet -at- shopify dot com and we can get things configured exactly how you want.

An app that promotes "Your customers can choose to support groundbreaking carbon removal technologies". Then you go to add the widget to checkout, so that customers can decide if they want to support this, and you basically cannot. You then are asked from Support to spend 15' of your 60' design time, to have Shopify hard code it at the checkout process. No.
Thanks for the feedback and sorry that the app isn't meeting your expectations. While it is not possible to place the badge inside of checkout, the interactive badge for merchants to fund carbon removal can be placed throughout your online store, for example on the home page, product pages, and shopping cart. We'd be happy to get that set up for you if you'd like -- reach out to planet at shopify dot com.

Installing this app and putting the widget on my web created big CLS(cumulative layout shift) problems and broke the theme, persisted after unistalling it. This proves that Shopify doesnt know what is doing.
