B1G1: BUSINESS FOR GOOD
Create measurable impacts
and uplift lives as a
part of your business journey.
Just imagine how it feels when every time something good happens in your business, something great happens in the world as well.
For every product, for every client, for every great meeting or simply for every month you're in business, you create a real impact in the world.
How Membership works
B1G1 takes nothing from your giving.
Your Membership sustains the initiative
and gives you the powerful giving engine.
100% of your giving goes directly to your chosen projects — less only direct bank charges. Your Membership fee is kept entirely separate. It funds the independent vetting of projects, the platform, the support and services we provide to Members, and the community that makes it all work.
And because we want effective giving to be accessible at every stage of business, your Membership scales with where you are — making it easy to start, and growing to serve you better as your business grows.

Solo & Startup
For solo operators and small businesses just beginning, giving from day one, simply and without complexity
$1/day
$365/year or $33/month
You no longer need to wait for the 'one day' moment. Most Starter members begin with one simple giving activity: an invoice sent, a client won. Within a year, that single habit has created hundreds of real impacts and a story worth sharing.
Small Business
For growing businesses ready to weave giving deeply into how they operate
$2/day
$730/year or $66/month
Create your shared legacy. Once your team can also see the impact counter moving, giving becomes something the whole business owns, not just a founder initiative. That shift can happen within the first few months.
Growing Business
For businesses where giving is becoming part of the culture: visible, shared, and felt by the whole team
$4/day
$1,460/year or $132/month
When powerfully implemented into a growing business, B1G1 stops being a giving tool and starts being a culture builder too. Clients reference your impact story. Team members mention it in job interviews. It becomes part of why people choose to work with you.
Established Business
For organisations where giving needs to work across teams, stakeholders and reporting requirements

Custom Pricing
At your scale, impact reporting becomes a genuine asset, in client conversations, board reporting, and team engagement. And most importantly, it adds greater meaning to the reason for your growth. The right structure matters for each company, and we'd like to understand yours before you commit to anything.
Enterprise Program
For larger organisations embedding giving across teams, clients and communities at scale
Let's talk
Custom Pricing
Organisations at this scale often find that B1G1 becomes a shared language, connecting people across teams to a purpose larger than any single project or quarter. You demonstrate what a Giving Business looks like in your industry and inspire others. We'll design the right structure together to leverage on the impact you get to create.
What members say about
being part of it.
I don't measure what B1G1 does for my revenue. I measure what it does for how I feel about my business on a Monday morning. That's worth more than any marketing spend.

Marketing Consultant · Melbourne
My team can literally play with the B1G1 tool and create impact with every Slack message, every meeting booked. They can really feel that what I talk about is serious and legitimate.

B1G1 helped us make giving part of who we are as a business, not something we do separately on the side.

A few things worth knowing.
Every cause on B1G1 has passed a two-tier vetting process run by B1G1 Giving - our independent 501(c)(3) charitable board. They evaluate applications, verify field operations, and review every cause annually. We curate so you don't have to. If a cause no longer meets the standard, it is removed.
B1G1 has options designed for businesses of every size - including solopreneurs. If you send one invoice a month, you create one impact a month. That is not too small. That is the entire point. B1G1 exists so giving is not something you do when you're finally successful enough. It's something you do as you build.
Cancel any time from your account settings - no calls, no forms. Your past giving impacts are permanent. A child received a day of education, a person got clean water, a tree was planted - those things do not un-happen because you cancelled. Your complete impact history stays in your account forever.
Never. Not a cent. Your giving goes directly to your chosen projects - minus only the credit card processing fee that your bank charges you. Your membership fee is entirely separate. It sustains the systems, processes, innovation, support, development and the community. The two things - your membership and your giving - never mix.
If you choose to do so, you can easily invite your team members to create their own B1G1 accounts and participate in the impact creation. B1G1 Membership Packages include different numbers of Team Member Accounts based on the company size and you can assign different levels of access to your team (e.g. company giving admin).
You can also request to purchase additional Team Accounts or upgrade your account if you need more. If you use Team Accounts, you can also purchase Impact Tokens and engage your team in the choice of impacts they want to create - regularly or on special occasions such as their birthdays and anniversaries.
Even if you choose not to use Team Accounts, you can invite your team to take a look at B1G1 Project List and let you know the projects they like to support. This way, everyone can participate in choosing the impact they want to help create in the world. B1G1 helps you tune into many opportunities to create holistic and lasting impacts in the world by harnessing the power of your business.
When you join B1G1 you not only add meaning and tangible impact to your business but you become part of something bigger. You’re joining a Movement — a global network of purpose-driven, impact-driven businesses collectively creating a real positive impact in our world.
Your B1G1 membership fee quite literally allows B1G1 to do what it does — to bring you this ‘Operating System for Good’ as well as access to the community of like-minded business leaders. Without your membership fee — regarded as the Movement Fund —, there would be no B1G1. It allows us to select and vet high-impact projects for you so that your giving impact really is maximized in every way possible. And it allows us to continually innovate to increase both the depth and scope of your impact and to make using B1G1 ever more exciting and valuable for you and your business.
This structure allows us to keep your membership and your giving transactions completely and transparently separate. B1G1 does not take any fee from your contributions - all your contributions are passed onto the Worthy Causes excluding credit card/bank fees.
Each membership tier enables every sized company to do their bit, with larger sized companies naturally gaining proportionally more benefits. As a B1G1: Business for Good you’re ensuring that this community of giving businesses can create the biggest impact possible.
The B1G1 initiative is run by two sister organizations - the social enterprise (B1G1.com) that runs the platform and business program and a 501(c)(3) charity (B1G1 Giving, Inc.) that manages B1G1's Worthy Cause program. The Board of B1G1 Giving sets the criteria of the Worthy Cause program and evaluates all applications coming from charitable organizations that are recommended to B1G1.
If the organization is approved, their projects are evaluated, broken down into micro-impact units and listed in the project lists. All B1G1 projects are also reviewed annually to ensure effective and sustainable outcomes.
Because of its model, B1G1 can only work with a limited type of charity organizations that can meet all our requirements. The Worthy Cause membership is totally free for the approved organizations, and B1G1 does not take any fee from our Members' contribution - all the contributions are passed onto the projects they choose to support, excluding credit card and bank fees.
We can expand our reach to many more causes as more businesses join us. B1G1 Members can recommend their favourite charity organizations to B1G1 too. You can learn more about B1G1's Worthy Cause program here: b1g1.org.
We’re often asked, “how much should we give?” In B1G1, you’re in total control of your giving budget and mode of giving. This is because we are committed to making it easy for any business of any stage and size to start making a positive impact in the world, without waiting for 'one day'.
With that in mind though, many B1G1 Members like the guideline (and it is a guideline only) of '1% of revenue' as a good giving benchmark. This is also aligned with the recommendations of other initiatives such as ‘Pledge 1%’ and ‘1% for the Planet’.
B1G1's charity arm, B1G1 Giving is an approved Non-profit Partner of 1% for the Planet initiative, so your giving to all environmental projects can be included in your 1% for the Planet giving should you choose to participate in the 1% pledge too. And you can also allocate some of your giving budget to support your local charity organizations and other efforts to make your giving an even more sustainable and impactful giving business.
We also have a benchmark set for each level of Membership in a simple way. So, once you start on the B1G1 Membership Journey, you can clear the minimum giving requirement for each level, as well as set your own budget/target, and be recognised as the Impact Partner of the movement. The Impact Partner benchmark not only have a simple giving size indicator but also encourages and rewards Members for the regularity of giving and length of their participation in the movement.
Again, one of the many great things with B1G1 is that you are always in control of how much you give AND how often, so as your business grows, so too can your giving. As your membership fee is separate to your giving amounts, you can easily view, manage and adjust your giving amounts directly within your account.
