Spliiit collected over 15,500 donations for Emmaüs Connect

Micro-donations are a hit! Thanks to its new "Round-up" feature launched 1 year ago, Spliiit has already collected over 15,500 donations for Emmaüs Connect, a member of the Emmaüs movement fighting digital exclusion. A total of 3,300 euros has been donated, enabling 28 disadvantaged people to receive reconditioned equipment, Internet access and digital support. As a reminder, 14 million French people are currently digitally illiterate.

A partnership to promote digital inclusion
In 2022, Spliiit has teamed up with Emmaüs Connect to launch a brand new feature: Rounding up the price, or "Arrondiii" for those in the know. This feature enables users to round up each transaction to the nearest euro, with the difference going directly to the Emmaüs association created in 2013 to combat the digital exclusion of the most disadvantaged.

The partnership was born of a shared observation: 17% of French people are unable to use digital technology in their daily lives, while 38% of Internet users lack at least one basic digital skill, and 2% have none at all. All these handicaps are often synonymous with marginalization, in a world where digital technology predominates.

28 people in digital difficulty supported
And it works! The new feature has already raised 15,500 donations, equivalent to 3,300 euros. As a result, 28 people living in isolation have benefited from access to connection resources at solidarity prices, low-cost reconditioned equipment and free training to acquire essential skills.

Equipping, connecting and training: by acting on the three levers of the fight against digital illiteracy, Emmaüs Connect helps jobseekers in precarious situations committed to social and professional integration to achieve minimum digital autonomy.

Spliiit, a player in the service of accessibility
By working alongside Emmaüs Connect, Spliiit is fully in line with its desire to make its services accessible to as many people as possible. Created in 2019, Spliiit is an innovative, collaborative solution that enables individuals to share their subscription(s) with others. The aim: to save over 200 euros a year!

The principle is simple. A user creates a sharing group for a specific subscription and invites others to join. The platform then divides the subscription costs between the various members, facilitating sharing and savings. In all, over 220 subscription services are offered, from SVOD to software, music, video games, press, cloud storage, e-commerce, wellness, education and cybersecurity.

Spliiit currently has over 900,000 users in France and the 26 other countries of the European Union, and has already generated a profit of 7 million euros for consumers.
