A platform to support community currencies
The Community Currency Platform provides tools that empower digital or physical
communities to:
Create a custom currency that supports their values
Better manage a community currency already in circulation
Share best practices and get advice from other communities
Track aggregate spending to identify trade opportunities, linking unused resources to otherwise unmet needs.
Compare spending patterns with other communities to motivate changes in behavior
The currencies created are complementary, meaning that it supplements a country’s
main currency, rather than replaces it. This helps to strengthen the local economy
through supporting local initiatives.
• In addition, the currency can carry added value, like energy credits, time, or farm
produce, to encourage transactions within the community.
*Community Currencies are the earliest form of human currency. Examples of this type of money can be found in ancient Israel, Syria, Jordan and Egypt, as far back as 4000BC. They were often but not
always backed by some commodity, or served as promissory notes, and circulated alongside other currencies for thousands of years.
