What if we told you, that making orders with friends just got way easier?

You and your squad looking at this post.

Imagine this;

You and you friends and having a small party, there’s music, drinks, games and its even an EPL weekend.

Ella — life of the party and your close friend — decides that some finger foods would be a swell addition to the fun, so she makes an announcement over the music and noise;

‘Guys! Who wants small chops??’

Everybody yells to the affirmative excitedly! I mean, who doesn’t love small chops??

Then she asks around for orders, ‘Bode, how many packs do you want? Michael, you nko?’

Everybody yells their requests, Ella sums it all up and announces that she’ll order on smallChops.ng.

The bill for 30 packs [total sum] comes to N16,000 including delivery.

Ella walks back into the room, and starts to shout. ‘Michael, you asked for 4 packs bah? send 2k to my account’.

She tries to get the others to fess up and transfer to her account, but its becoming a struggle, so she gives up and goes back to join the noise.

Right yeah? Wrong.

This is what actually happens :-

Ella places the order on smallChops.ng, gets to the payment page and taps ‘#Pay4Me’.

She states how many people placed orders, how much each person’s bill is according to their order, and puts in their emails or phone numbers.

#Pay4Me sends a payment link stating their bill to each person’s email/phone, and through rave, they pay their cut by card or bank transfer.

Once payment is complete, the order is delivered. Easy!

At smallChops.ng, we realise that small chops go beyond the crunchy taste of the spring rolls and samosa, the puffy sweetness of puff puff, or the slightly charred aftertaste of BBQ Chicken. We understand that small chops are a tiny signifier of happiness and fun, ever present at owambés, second only to Jollof in attendance records. We believe that the only thing better than eating small chops, is eating small chops with friends and family, and that is why we created #Pay4Me, making it even easier — and less triggering — to order small chops among friends.

Try it out, send us an email to tell us your #Pay4Me story on love@smallchops.ng with the subject ‘My #Pay4Me Story’ and we’ll be giving out 30 free packs of small chops to the most creative story sent it by October 1st!

P.S: We didn’t make ‘EVERYTHING’ up, you can ask Ella about #Pay4Me yourself here, she’ll be more than happy to assist. ☺️
