* The metal semantics refer to coins, and by extension any money, colloquially, and this is a slang derivation making up a verb meaning to 'pay'; sharpening of /m(ː)/ > /mp/ is a common device of derivation in the colloquial jargon. Another silly example is í‹›m- ('be sweet'; 'be cute') > ímpæh ('cutie').
