Hey Product Hunt! 👋

Arnaud here, co-founder of Tink.you. My co-founder and I built timeNough in 2022. Four years later, we're launching Tink.you under that umbrella — because we kept seeing the same thing:

Millions of gig workers delivering outstanding service every day, and rarely getting tipped. Not because people don't want to. Because the moment is broken. No cash. No app. No idea what's fair. Awkwardness. Missed recognition.

⚡ HERE'S WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT:

You can claim your Tink.you handle in 30 seconds. That's it. No paperwork. No verification delays. No waiting.

30 seconds later, you're ready to receive tips. Real money. Instantly.

Anyone can set up a code — from students tutoring kids after class, to the 140+ gig economy jobs we've identified. We're talking about workers who almost NEVER get tipped:

📦 Delivery & Logistics
→ Amazon delivery drivers (your package at the door, zero recognition)
→ Food delivery riders (UberEats, Deliveroo, DoorDash — no tip button)
→ Grocery delivery drivers
→ Package couriers on bikes and scooters
→ Last-mile delivery drivers

🏭 Warehouse & Stocking
→ Warehouse pickers and packers
→ Sortation associates
→ Inventory stockers (night shifts, invisible work)
→ Loading dock workers
→ Returns processors

🚗 Automotive & Maintenance
→ Car washers
→ Valet parkers
→ Gas station helpers
→ Mobile car detailers
→ Parking attendants

🏠 Domestic & Care Work
→ House cleaners
→ Laundry service workers
→ Elderly caregivers
→ Home health aides

🐕 Personal Services
→ Dog walkers
→ Pet sitters
→ Handyman workers
→ Movers

🍽️ Food Service (the ones behind the scenes)
→ Dishwashers
→ Kitchen porters
→ Food runners
→ Bussers
→ Catering staff

And many more: fruit pickers, snow removal workers, warehouse workers, security guards, event setup crews...

🛠 HOW IT WORKS:

1️⃣ Claim your handle (30 seconds, first come first served)
2️⃣ Share it anywhere — WhatsApp, Signal, QR code, short link
3️⃣ Your client scans, chooses an amount, pays instantly
4️⃣ No new app to download. No account creation. No barriers.

🎯 KEY FEATURES:

👉 Zero Friction for Tippers — They use WhatsApp or Signal, platforms they already have
👉 One NIC Handle — Yours forever, shared any way you like
👉 Print-Ready QR Codes — Generated instantly for tables, vehicles, uniforms, business cards
👉 28 Languages — From the website to every conversation, worldwide from day one
👉 Real-Time Dashboard — Track tips, withdraw instantly via IBAN, monitor everything
👉 Smart Sharing Rules — Split tips with teammates automatically

🔮 COMING SOON — THE AI INTEGRATION:

As more workers join, our AI learns tipping patterns across industries, locations, and service types. Soon, we'll recommend the perfect tip amount to every client.

More workers → smarter AI → fairer tips for everyone.

This is something nobody has ever done. But it only works if workers register first and use the platform. Early adopters will shape this intelligence.

🎁 LAUNCH OFFER:

We launched on June 4th, 2026. For real!

Tink.you is FREE to start. No credit card required. No hidden fees on your first tips.

We believe this changes the economics of gig work — decoupling fair recognition from cash, apps, and geography.

💬 WE NEED YOUR FEEDBACK & TESTING:

As we grow, we want to know:
→ Which gig worker in your life would you tip today if it took 10 seconds and no specific app download?
→ What platforms (beyond WhatsApp and Signal) should we integrate next?
→ Are you a gig worker? Tell us your biggest pain point with receiving tips, gratuities and recognition.

We'll be here all day to answer your questions. Drop "TINK" below or just say hi! 👇

Thank you for supporting fair tipping. 🙏
