uPhil Tipping

Remember that time when you Phil’led up your car but told the guy NOT to check your tyres, oil or water because you knew you didn't have any change to tip him with? Or when you were done shopping and you waddled out like an anxious duck, with your trolly, trying to run from the car guards trying to help you? Or what about the time you put your car keys in a Ziplock bag and chucked it into your wetsuit when you went surfing, instead of just leaving it with the car guard? Well NOT ANY MORE! Never again will you not have cash to tip with!

uPhil is an online tipping platform for South Africans – Phil a wallet with uPhil!
You can tip anyone and the beauty of it is - the recipient does not have to know what uPhil is, they don't need a bank account or smartphone either. All they need is a cellphone number.

To “Phil” (tip) someone, simply download uPhil (no Signup necessary). Tap the amount you wish to tip. Phil in the recipient's cellphone number and tap pay. That's it.

uPhil sends an SMS and a WhatsApp to all recipients, the day after they've received their first tip, explaining how it works. We also send them a QR code that is linked to their cellphone number, so the next time someone tips them, they can simply scan the recipient's code.

Recipients are paid out daily through a Shoprite Money Market account. They will receive 2 messages from Shoprite, telling them how much they've received and how to register to spend their tips. They can then spend their tips in Checkers, Shoprite, U$ave, Computicket, K'nect, Checkers liquor, Super Cash and Carry and selected Spaza shops.

Receivers get 96% of the tip amount. 2.5% goes to the payment gateway and another 1.5% goes to uPhil.

Now, drive with confidence knowing that your oil and water has been Phil‘led up. Let him push your trolly for you. Go surfing without your keys. Tip that street musician and the guy selling pens next to the road!
Bee a Phil – Phil’em! They deserve it - small change can make a BIG difference.
