WWF Selfies enables users to add WWF-branded stickers and frames to their posts. For every in-app like, comment, and share, users earn JET8's in-app social currency, JETS - which can be used to make a monetary donation directly to WWF via http://wwf.panda.org/.

WWF International, Director, Digital Engagement, Sid Das, said of the partnership: "WWF sets the absolute benchmark for building a global community of passionate supporters, having raised awareness around conservation issues since 1961. For WWF, decentralised technology presents a new platform to connect, communicate, and advocate for the pressing environmental challenges facing our world today. By engaging a global audience with our very own JET8-powered decentralised engagement network, we can achieve our aims of educating and inspiring people around conservation like never before."

JET8 Foundation Director, Victor Zabrockis said: "Our aim at the JET8 Foundation is to enable crucial organisations like WWF to succeed in the digital age. Through building global mobile communities using our decentralised social media app, WWF will be able to educate and influence more people, businesses, and governments than ever.
