What Is a Receipt?

A Regeneration Receipt is issued the moment you contribute to a tranche. It is your cryptographic proof of participation — recording your contribution amount, the tranche identifier, and a timestamp that cannot be altered.

Receipts are not project-specific. They prove you participated in a tranche — project allocation happens after the tranche closes and funds are deployed to verified restoration sites.

Issued immediately upon contribution confirmation

Records tranche ID, contribution amount, and timestamp

Immutable — cannot be altered or revoked once issued

Used for entitlement computation when packs activate

Not project-specific until tranche allocation plan is published

Receipt Lifecycle

From contribution to project pack claim

1

You contribute to a tranche

Receipt is issued immediately with tranche ID, amount, and timestamp.

2

Tranche closes

Allocation report published. Your receipt share maps to specific project allocations.

3

First audit completes

Project yield profile established. Project Packs become claimable based on your receipt.

4

Packs enter pool

Your entitlement converts to index token governance weight via the BCG pool.

On-Chain Proof

What "Proof" Actually Means

Traditional contribution receipts are a PDF in your inbox — easily lost, editable, and dependent on a single company to honour. A BCG Regeneration Receipt is different.

When your contribution is confirmed, a receipt record is written to the blockchain. The transaction hash, timestamp, and amount are permanently anchored — no third party can alter, delete, or dispute them. Your proof exists independently of Blue Carbon Gold as an organization.

Trust Chain

From Receipt to Verified Carbon Credit

Your receipt is not the end — it's the first link in an auditable chain that terminates in a registered carbon credit on Verra.

Entitlement

How Your Share Is Calculated

When a tranche closes, an allocation report is published showing the total raised and the distribution across projects. Your receipt's proportional share of the tranche determines your pack entitlement.

For example: if you contributed $250 to a $10,000 tranche that allocated 100 hectares across three projects, your entitlement is 2.5% — or 2.5 hectares of packs distributed proportionally across those projects.

Example Entitlement Calculation

Your contribution$250
Total tranche raised$10,000
Your share2.5%
Tranche hectares allocated100 ha
Your pack entitlement2.5 ha

This example is illustrative. Actual entitlement depends on tranche parameters and allocation plan.

The allocation plan is published in the tranche close report and visible on the Pool Transparency page. Every allocation is publicly verifiable.

FAQ

Common Questions

Is my receipt tied to a specific project?

No. Receipts record tranche participation and are not project-specific. The allocation to specific projects is published in the tranche close report after the tranche ends.

Can I transfer or sell my receipt?

Receipt transferability is governed by platform terms. Check the current terms for transferability status. Receipts are primarily participation proof, not a tradeable asset.

When do I use my receipt to claim packs?

After the project's first Verra audit is verified and the yield profile is recorded. The platform will notify you when packs are claimable based on your receipt entitlement.

What if I contribute multiple times to the same tranche?

Each contribution generates its own receipt. All receipts from the same tranche contribute to your total entitlement proportionally.

Important Disclosure

Regeneration Receipts record tranche participation and are not project-specific. They do not represent ownership of carbon credits or project-specific assets until packs are claimed post-first-audit. Yield projections are estimates derived from first-audit baselines and are not guarantees of future issuance. Carbon credits are issued by Verra on their own timeline; BCG records and displays this data from registry sources.
