WeAre8

About Us

WeAre8 is a social media platform on a mission to save the planet.

WeAre8 unites creators, the community, its citizens and brands to positively change the world.

Built on the belief that social media should serve you, value your time and empower you to make an impact every day, we have developed a platform that brings people together and includes a video advertising solution for brands that is transparent, efficient, effective and sustainable.

The WeAre8 platform enables brands to connect with people in an environment built with love and free from hate. Every time a brand advertises on our platform, we donate money to saving our planet and pay people for their time, who can then “pay it forward” to other areas of social impact such as disadvantage, equality, health and education.

WeAre8 is a certified B Corp committed to transforming the $450B global digital advertising ecosystem to deliver social impact on the world and being a force for good.
