RALEIGH, N.C., April 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Karma Wallet, a trailblazer in the financial ecosystem with a focus on sustainable consumer spending, today proudly announces its acquisition of DoneGood, a prominent marketplace for sustainable shopping.

Designed to disrupt the fintech status quo, Karma Wallet offers an easy mechanism for consumers to understand the true impact of their spending habits. This acquisition unites Karma Wallet's expertise in financial ecosystems with DoneGood's expansive merchant network, signaling a transformative shift that brings simplicity to ethical consumer practices.

Jayant Khadilkar, CEO of Karma Wallet, shares, "This is a significant step forward in actualizing our vision of blending ethical practices with everyday financial choices. It symbolizes our dedication to a future where financial empowerment and sustainable living are one and the same."

The Future Ahead

Both organizations share a commitment to sustainability, ethical practices, and consumer empowerment. DoneGood CEO, Cullen Schwarz, adds, "We've always believed that the dollars people spend can be the world's most powerful force for change. When consumers demand products made with living wages and climate change-fighting practices, the market supplies more living wage jobs and products that fight climate change. Karma Wallet shares our belief in that theory of change. We believe our alliance with Karma Wallet can now help far more people wield their purchasing power even more effectively."

Karma Wallet co-founder, Kedar Karkare, PhD, reflects, "As a family-founded company, DoneGood resonates deeply with our core values. We started Karma Wallet with the vision of integrating ethical choices into everyday finances, and this is a significant milestone on that journey."
