Designed the Mobile App for 5 Pay, a social app where fans support creators with $5.Tips received by creators: 50K+.
Orimolade Eniola on Aug 18, 2025This is a summarized version of how I designed the 5 Pay Mobile App
5 Pay is a social app where fans discover creators and support their work by sending $5 in one tap. The goal was to make giving feel as quick and natural as liking a post, while creators see every tip arrive and manage their earnings in one place.


Challenge
Tipping a creator usually means leaving the app, picking an amount and going through a long checkout. 5 Pay needed a flow that keeps fans in the feed and makes support instant and effortless.
Choosing how much to give made fans hesitate and drop off.
Sending support had to happen without leaving the feed.
Creators needed a clear, real-time view of who supported them.
Adding money and withdrawing earnings had to feel simple and trustworthy.
Solution
I designed 5 Pay around a single fixed amount: $5, no catch. Removing the choice turns support into one tap, and every screen after that confirms, celebrates and tracks the tip so both fans and creators always know what happened.
