How HappyPacker works?


The following example shows how HappyPacker helps Ben to get his favourite food without having to travel from Yio Chu Kang to Changi Airport.  Jon, the packer, gets $3 to offset his transportation cost.

First, Ben search for food stalls in HappyPacker and he found Wild Olives Paste, complete with a link to FoodieFC food blog.  He can create a new food stall in check in screen if he cannot find the stall he wants.

Jon sends iMessage to iron out

If Jon and Ben agrees, it is win-win for both of them since Ben gets his favourite food and Jon get $3 to offset his transportation cost.
