Our customers have asked how they can help us to further our mission to make money work for positive social, environmental and cultural change. The simple answer is to help us grow our community by recommending us to others. To help do that we’ve introduced our Refer a Friend Scheme which is an easy and inspiring way for our existing customers to recommend us, be thanked for doing so, and to thank new customers for joining Triodos Bank.
To thank our existing customers, we will make a £25 donation to a charity on their behalf for every friend they recommend. Similarly, we will say thank you to all new customers who are referred and open a personal current account offering them a gift of a £60 voucher from one of our business customers, or by making a charity donation on their behalf. New customers can choose which reward they receive.

You can recommend as many friends to Triodos Bank as you wish. However, we will only make up to a maximum of 30 donations to your chosen charity within a 12-month period for every eligible friend you refer. See terms and conditions for full details. We’d be delighted though of course if you wanted to recommend many more friends and family but unfortunately it would have to be outside of the Refer a Friend Scheme.
