How to Convince Your Friends to Pay £4.50 Each Without Sounding Like a Sales Bro

So You Want a Better Mini-League Season… But No One Wants to Pay?

FPL.fun costs £5/monthfor the entire league. That means if you’ve got 10 people in your league, it’s just 50p per person.

Or £4.50 each for the whole season, if you pay annually. That’s the price of a coffee. Or a Tesco meal deal (RIP the £3 days).

Still, we get it. Asking people to “chip in” feels weird. You’re not trying to start a crypto project.

So here’s a no-pressure, no-cringe guide to getting it done — with messages you can literally copy-paste into your group chat.

1. The Casual Vibe

Yo, thinking of getting FPL.fun for our league — live standings, bonus points, fun stats, all that jazz.
It’s like £45 for the whole season. Worth it for the drama alone tbh. You in?

2. The Banter Angle

If we each chuck in £4.50, we get live updates, weird awards, and proof that [insert name] is the actual Cucumber of the Week.
Democracy is calling. Let’s make this league chaotic properly.

3. The Math Nerd Move

£5/month divided by 10 = 50p each. For 9 months.
That’s 4.5 quid each to make FPL actually fun again. Cheaper than a pint.
If anyone objects, they owe us a beer instead.

4. The Guilt Trip Classic

Look, I already paid for Netflix, Spotify, and probably half of Disney+ last season.
Someone else can Revolut me £4.50 for bonus points and league-wide glory. Deal?

💡 Extra Tips That Work Surprisingly Well

  • Use screenshots. Show them the app in action. People are visual.
  • Name-drop the custom awards. “Formula 1” mode and “Manager of the Gameweek” hit different.
  • Make a poll. “Should we chip in for FPL.fun this season?” Yes / Yes but sarcastic
  • Start with “I’ll cover it unless you all chip in.” You won’t have to. Peer pressure will do the rest.

This Isn’t a Sales Pitch — It’s a Quality-of-FPL-season Upgrade

We made FPL.fun because we were tired of dead leagues, boring updates, and arguments over bonus points. If it helps bring your league to life and makes every Gameweek more fun — then the £4.50 pays for itself by September.

So go ahead. Copy, paste, and watch the group chat light up.
