A record nobody changes afterwards
The audit trail is immutable and cryptographically chained. Once recorded, evidence cannot be changed, not even by Optima.
Changing a record breaks the chain, and verification shows it.
For companies
Reduce operational losses and turn waste into measurable efficiency.
Optima ESG organizes surplus food donation with control and traceability, following the donation requirements of Brazil’s Law 15,224/2025 (PNCPDA, the National Policy to Combat Food Loss and Waste).
Plans are for companies with a Brazilian registration (CNPJ). Tax figures follow Brazilian law.

Proof any auditor can check
Four mechanisms support every donation recorded on the platform. You, your accountant or your auditors can check all of them.
You donate to organizations that were checked
Every non-profit is vetted against official Brazilian government registries (CEIS and CNEP, the federal sanctions registries, and the forced-labour employer registry published on the Transparency Portal) and the status of its company registration (CNPJ).
Anyone can check the certificate, without logging in
From the Pro plan on, each certificate carries public validation by QR code. Customers, auditors or the press confirm it directly in the browser. On the Enterprise plan, the auditor your company hires gets their own read-only access and checks the tax dossier and each receipt record without going through us.
Every number has a legal basis
The tax estimate cites the deduction law (Law 9,249/1995, art. 13, §2, III), the donation follows the requirements of Law 15,224/2025, and the texts are updated when the rules change.

Before choosing a plan
The tax side, in Brazil
Brazilian companies taxed under the actual-profit regime (Lucro Real) can deduct donations to qualified non-profits from their corporate income tax base (IRPJ and CSLL), up to 2% of operating profit (Law 9,249/1995, art. 13, §2, III). The cap applies to the deductible amount, not to the tax saved.
For companies with annual taxable profit above R$ 240,000, the combined rate is 34% (IRPJ 15% plus a 10% surtax, and CSLL 9%). Complementary Law 224/2025 reduces the incentive by 10%, so the net effect reaches up to 30.6% of the amount donated.
Optima calculates this for every donation, cites the law behind each figure and keeps the documents the company needs to support the deduction.
Estimates for guidance only. They are not tax advice and must be confirmed by the company’s accountant.

Guidance estimate: a store under the actual-profit regime (Lucro Real) that donates 5,000 kg/month could reduce IRPJ and CSLL by R$ 36,000 to R$ 91,000 per year, when operating profit supports the 2% cap.**
