How to gift Telegram Premium and Stars

All you need is the recipient's Telegram username. Pick the gift on the home page, create an account once, and pay in crypto or from your credit.

1. Enter the recipient's username

Type the recipient's Telegram username in the order box. You can add the @ or paste a t.me link; we read the username from it.

We show the public profile name and photo right away, so you can see it is the right person before you pay. Channels, groups and bots cannot receive gifts, and we tell you before you order.

Usernames are 4 to 32 characters: letters, digits and underscores, starting with a letter.
No username yet? It takes a minute in Telegram Settings under Username.
Premium can go to up to 10 recipients in one order.

2. Choose the duration or the number of Stars

Premium comes in 3 months ($8.00), 6 months ($11.00) and 12 months ($17.00). For Stars, type any amount from 3,500 to 550,000 or tap a popular amount. The order total updates as you choose.

3. Create an account once

Your account opens with one token made in your browser, starting with BTG. The token is your username and password in one: copy it or save it as a .txt file, tick the box and the account opens. Your chosen gift is kept while you do this.

Next time, log in with the saved token or open the .txt file on any device.

4. Pay in crypto or use credit

Press the gift button. If your credit covers the order, it is paid from credit at once. If not, our secure checkout opens: choose a coin and network, send the amount shown, and the gift is sent once the payment is confirmed. A crypto payment starts at $30, and anything left after the gift stays as credit for your next gift.

You can also add credit first, from $30 up to $5,000. Your first top-up from $100 gets a small bonus of up to 10%.

5. The gift reaches the account

Gifts are delivered through Telegram's official gifting. The recipient gets a gift message in Telegram and Premium turns on right away. If they already have Premium, the new months are added after the time they have left.

If a gift cannot be applied, the amount paid goes back to your credit. My account lists every gift with its recipient, item, amount and status.
