If I choose VCUs, how do I hold and manage them?

To have full control of VCUs you will need a Verra Registry account. Any registered business can open a Verra Registry account. It costs 500 USD - it’s a one-off cost and there’s no maintenance costs. You do need to go through Verra’s KYC process, which takes around two weeks.

Alternatively, if you wish to receive VCUs but choose not to open a Verra Registry account, we can hold the VCUs on your behalf. If you wish to sell credits that you own but are held in our account, you can let us know and we will make necessary transfers on your behalf. We also offer cash payment option, which means you can receive funds (from VCUs sold) to your account directly. See How and when
