Our verdict

Moonpig reports a full Scope 3 inventory and says its Scope 1 and 2 emissions are 32% below FY20, with 95% of its energy renewable in FY26. But its Scope 3 rose from 77,330 to 80,488 tCO2e, so total emissions rose; 37.5% of supplier emissions are covered by science-based targets against a 67% goal; and none of its emissions data is externally assured.

Moonpig scores 55/100 (Making progress) on SINK's independent climate assessment, scored from public data only. Scores are free. Nobody can pay to change a score, speed it up or hide it. Last verified November 2026.

That places Moonpig joint 63rd of 1,118 companies scored, and 1st of 32 in E-commerce / Online Retail.
