In the Pakistani Fairtrade Factory Talon Sports, workers earn not only minimum wages but living wages. The working conditions are much better than in most places in Pakistan and their families receive education and health care. Nevertheless, the income of workers does not exceed 5 € per day, with consequences for their families’ living standards. With tip me you can double daily wages, strengthen the visibility of the workers and support them in realising their goals and dreams!  

tip me receives all the tips that people have been given online and hands it on to the people in Pakistan. How does this work? We register all the workers with their phone number, ID card and if in place, their individual bank accounts.

In cases where the workers do not have bank accounts, we transfer 100 % of the money via Mobile Money directly to their SIM card. Cash Pickup can be done at a local kiosk or bank. To avoid conflicts, the tips are distributed equally between all the workers involved in the production process.
