📢 Tell your people about the project and invite them to participate. The more devices in a single shipment, the less CO2 and the more you save.
📲 Choose the place you are, the number of devices and the shipping method.
📧 Whatever they are, continue with the process until the end, and you will receive all the information by mail.
