On June 13th, 2023, Pay4Me App started an exciting contest to find bright student ambassadors across Nigerian Universities. After a journey that involved 165 students, we're happy to announce that the Pay4Me App Student Ambassador Contest has come to an end. Here’s a comprehensive look at the journey from inception to the successful winners.
About The Pay4Me App Ambassadorship Program
The Pay4Me student ambassador program has a clear purpose: to discover talented Nigerian students while they're in university. Our primary aim is to select and equip these students with various technical skills. This way, they can confidently share information about our innovative products within and beyond their school community.
Furthermore, winning students can undergo internship training in their preferred department at the Pay4Me App. Throughout their internship, they will receive a monthly stipend and other perks of being an ambassador.
To kick off the contest, we announced on Twitter that students from all Nigerian universities are invited to participate in the journey of becoming the face of our brand.
