Environmental sustainability
Flywire is committed to reducing carbon-intensive activities and improving our overall energy efficiencies. There are multiple components to Flywire’s environmental sustainability strategy, including:
Hybrid & remote work policy
Flywire continues to offer FlyMates all around the world the opportunity to work remotely or in a hybrid model, which lowers our overall environmental impact.
Environmental sustainability scholarships
This year, the Flywire Charitable Foundation created a new category dedicated to students innovating in the area of environmental sustainability, as part of its annual scholarship program. This year’s scholar is creating new solutions for water purification and waste management in conflict zones.
Cloud-based hosting
Flywire does not own or operate data centers. We use a third-party cloud service as our infrastructure platform and capacity utilization is variable. Our cloud providers have committed to achieving net-zero carbon by 2040.

The inventory was developed in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Standard and was calculated using a mix of calculation methodologies. Our baseline inventory includes Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions from purchased electricity, purchased goods and services (cloud services only), business travel and employee commuting & telework..
