Diginex closes €55 million acquisition of Plan A to create ESG technology powerhouse

Diginex (NASDAQ:DGNX) finalized its acquisition of PlanA.earth GmbH on Wednesday, a transformative move that consolidates two of Europe’s leading sustainability platforms into a single, integrated "RegTech" giant.

The deal, valued at approximately €55 million ($64 million), positions Diginex to capture a rapidly expanding market for auditable carbon accounting and ESG disclosure tools.

Under the final terms of the agreement, London-based Diginex paid €3 million in cash and issued 6,720,317 ordinary shares to Plan A’s sellers.

The transaction not only absorbs Plan A’s advanced AI-driven decarbonization engine but also brings blue-chip institutional backers Visa and Deutsche Bank into Diginex’s shareholder base as part of the equity exchange.

The acquisition addresses a critical pain point for multinational corporations currently navigating a fragmented landscape of sustainability software.

By unifying Plan A’s "Science Based Targets" (SBTi) compliant carbon accounting with Diginex’s reporting tools—which cover 19 global frameworks—the company now offers an end-to-end solution that links regulatory compliance directly to operational decarbonization.

Plan A brings a robust portfolio of over 1,500 clients, including global brands like BMW, Coca-Cola, and Trivago.
