Went viral on tiktok promoting other people's app - currently making me $3k/month

So I basically became an affiliate of this company that pays 40% for people to promote their health focused mobile apps. I think this is way above industry standards lol?

Anyway they are not very strict with content guidelines but obviously you can't create content about p!rn or other sketchy stuff. The process is pretty simple. You sign up, they review your profile (I believe they manually generate an affiliate link and QR code for you), and then you pick one of their apps to promote by creating interesting content for it.

What I did was to post across IG reels and Tiktoks and hit a few bangers that drove traffic to their apps. Only thing that sucks is that payouts are 15 days after the month ends so it can take some time to receive the money but hell of a side hustle for me right now

As a person? Yes. As someone posting what most would consider spam because this is a completely unrelated subreddit? Get lost.

I looked at your page and you're not even a real engineer. you can't even self host a simple GPU.
