Together, let’s ask ourselves questions. How can we give meaning to our purchases and our exchanges? How can we regain control over money and free ourselves from financial speculation? How can we encourage more local, healthier, more sustainable consumption? How can we support the local economy, the associative fabric and civic life in our territory?

CigoPay is a complementary and civic local currency, organized as a solidarity purchasing group, sharing common values, throughout the Haut-Rhin territory.

CigoPay is a network which brings together in the same territory citizens, professionals, associations and communities who together weave the necessary links to find common sense and solidarity on a daily basis. We are all mobilized to face the challenges of our time.
