Go Paperless!

Did you know? A growing number of paper-saving services such as Envelope-FreeSM ATMs, Online Only Statements, and e-bills are available at Wells Fargo—and the environmental benefits to using such services are tremendous. Already, our customers who use Online Only Statements have helped achieve the benefits shown above.

Together we can make a difference. If every Wells Fargo customer chose paperless services, imagine the exponential impact we could have! In one year, for example using just Online Only Statements, we’d collectively conserve the equivalent of more than 4.5 million trees2.

Learn more. Visit Wells Fargo Online® Banking. Try the PayItGreen® Green Calculator (in the right sidebar) to estimate your financial paper footprint and see the positive impact this one simple action can have. Wells Fargo is a founding member of PayItGreen and is committed to educating consumers and businesses about the positive environmental impacts of electronic banking.

Go paperless! We invite you to take the next steps. For starters, please enroll in our Online Only Statements and make deposit using an Envelope-Free ATM. We invite you to please try paying or receiving bills online too.

Thank you!
