58-year-old Şanlıurfa grandmother runs affiliate for grandchildren's allowance

In Karaköprü, 58-year-old Fatma — mother of three grandchildren — earns 980 TL monthly via thMenu affiliate after her son set up the dashboard during a tea-time chat.

In Karaköprü, Şanlıurfa, 58-year-old Fatma was the last family member to own a smartphone. Her son Ömer showed her the thMenu affiliate panel one Saturday evening, and eleven months later that decision pays a steady 980 TL per month — money she divides into three envelopes for her grandchildren's allowance.

A 90-minute setup with her son

Ömer took his mother's tablet, opened the affiliate signup, completed the OTP, passed Turnstile, and generated her coupon: FATMA20. The whole process took 90 minutes because Fatma asked her son to dictate each screen so she could copy it into her notebook.

Then mother and son listed the local wedding-hall owners they knew personally. Out of nine neighbourhood businesses, seven signed up using Fatma's coupon — each visit included tea and a "may God bless you" greeting.

Month-by-month earnings

The first four months brought a single referral: her nephew's baklava shop. In month five, when Adanalılar Wedding Hall began its Pro Yearly plan, dripped commission rose to 189 TL monthly. By month eleven, seven active signups produced the headline 980 TL.

  • Months 1-4: 1 signup, 47 TL/month (baklava shop)
  • Months 5-7: 3 signups, 189 TL/month (wedding halls)
  • Month 11: 7 signups, 980 TL/month (half on yearly drip)

Three envelopes for three grandchildren

On the 5th of each month, after payout, Fatma splits the money into three envelopes — school uniform, notebooks, and Saturday simit money. The remaining 200 TL covers her own vegetable shopping. She never lets the balance stay in the dashboard.

Ömer logs in once a month to read postback logs and the dripped-commission table with her. Fatma can now confidently say words like "yearly plan", "drip", and "refund window" — vocabulary she learned at the kitchen table.

FAQ

Can someone at 58 actually use the panel? Yes — Fatma only touches the payout button and coupon page; her son handles configuration.

What about taxes? Annual income below 3,000 TL falls under Türkiye's simplified declaration; her accountant neighbour helps each March.

Will she expand beyond the neighbourhood? No — "I don't sell to faces I don't know," she says. Her model is built on local trust.
