Now that you have recorded "Receive" and "Deliver" transactions on Empower Tracking, and have set up your project - you are ready to request Waste Credits by uploading required documentation.
Step 1: Access Your Project
Navigate to the Waste Credits tab
Open the project you created
Step 2: Create a Credit Request
Click “Create Credit Request”
Choose “Receive” and “Deliver” transactions from your tracking data
⚠️Important:
When selecting your "Deliver" transaction, make sure it matches the same material flow you chose for "Receive".
If you have multiple "Deliver" transactions in your tracking, double-check that you are selecting the same material as in the "Receive" transaction.
If you are in doubt, you can cross check the transaction ID to ensure it is the right one. You can access your transaction ID on Empower Tracking History by clicking 'Edit' and scrolling down to the bottom of the page.
