Payment guide

Pay with Telegram Stars

The fastest way to get Coins. About a minute, with the card, Apple Pay or Google Pay already on your phone. No crypto wallet, no ID check, and your statement only ever shows Telegram.

Six taps, start to finish

  1. Choose your pack

    Open Coins in the studio, pick a pack and tap Continue. Bought Coins never expire.

  2. Choose Telegram Stars

    Stars is already selected because it is the fastest method. The price in Stars sits next to your pack. Tap Continue in Telegram.

    Checkout with Telegram Stars selected and the price shown in Stars
  3. Open the invoice

    Telegram opens a chat with Voltpay Cash, our payment partner’s bot. That is expected — it handles the Stars payment for us. Tap Open invoice.

  4. No Stars yet? Buy some

    If your balance shows ★0 there are three ways to top up, and any of them works. Easiest: the invoice itself offers Stars packs on the spot — pick the one that covers it and pay with your card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Or buy them first, before you start: open Telegram Settings and tap My Stars, or message @PremiumBot and send it /stars. Already have enough Stars? This step is skipped.

  5. Confirm and pay

    Tap Confirm and pay. Telegram’s own payment sheet takes it from there.

  6. Done

    Telegram confirms the transfer and your Coins land in the studio within seconds. Switch back to the app and create.
