How to Use Terry (and Maximize Your Impact)

At Terry, we believe that every purchase can be a step toward climate action. Whether you’re ordering groceries, booking a trip, or buying that new laptop, your shopping can help restore forests, protect oceans, and support communities. Best of all: it doesn’t cost you anything extra.

Here’s your step-by-step guide to using Terry and a few insider tips to help you maximize your impact.

1. Choose your mission

When you join Terry, you automatically support the Terry Portfolio: a curated mix of high-impact projects like reforestation, agroforestry, biodiversity protection, and social impact initiatives.

Want to focus on just one? Tap the ⭐ icon next to a project to dedicate all your impact there. For example: supporting OneTreePlanted to plant trees or backing The Pollinators to protect bees.

2. Save your favorite brands

Tap the ❤️ icon on any brand card to save it as a favorite. All your go-tos, whether it’s Coolblue, HEMA, or Thuisbezorgd, will appear in your Favorites screen for quick and easy access.

Pro tip: This makes it way faster to always start your shopping from Terry.

3. Shop through Terry

• App users: Use the in-app browser to start and complete your purchases. Most brands (like Thuisbezorgd or Coolblue) work perfectly this way.

• Browser lovers: Install the Terry Impact Reminder (available for Chrome, Edge, and soon Safari + Firefox). It will nudge you when you’re on a partner site, so you never miss an impact opportunity.

💡 Example: Buying a new laptop at Coolblue through Terry can fund up to 10 new trees. That’s one checkout = one mini forest.

4. Check your settings

For Terry to track your donation correctly:

• Enable cookies

• Pause any ad blockers

• Complete your purchase in one session (if your cart is already full, just reopen the store via Terry before paying).

• 
  

5. Track your impact

After you shop, your donation may take a few days to appear:

• Pending = tracked

• Confirmed = credited to your mission

• Declined = cancelled or returned order

It can take up to 7 days. Don’t worry: your otter sidekick will notify you when it’s updated.

6. Missing a purchase?

If something doesn’t show up, Terry’s got your back. You’ll receive a notification to upload your order confirmation. Once you do, we’ll chase it down with the brand.

7. Multiply your impact: invite friends

The easiest way to double, triple, or 10x your impact? Invite friends to join Terry.
Every person who shops through Terry brings more support to climate action projects: at no cost to them.

Imagine: You order sushi on Thuisbezorgd (trees planted). Your friend orders new shoes at Zalando via Terry (biodiverity increased). Another books a trip via Booking.com (kelp forests protected). That’s collective impact in action.

8. Maximize your impact every day

• Use Favorites to save time

• Install the browser extension so you never forget

• Refer friends and family

• Choose the project that resonates most with you

• And most importantly: only buy what you truly need

Because mindful consumption leads to systemic change.

Final Word

Terry isn’t about shopping more. It’s about shopping better. Every order, big or small, can help fund nature restoration, biodiversity, and social impact projects.

✨ So next time you need something essential, start with Terry. Your otter sidekick will make sure your purchase makes a difference.
