How Creators earn and how the money reaches them.
Last updated: 2026-09-12
Draft pending legal review. Paying individuals across borders carries tax and reporting duties that depend on where you and they are. Take advice before the first payout leaves.
A Creator receives 80% of every Coin spent on them — subscriptions, unlocked posts, paid photos in chat, gifts, tips and video-call minutes alike. The remaining 20% is the platform commission and covers payment fees, hosting, relaying video and running the Service.
Earnings appear in your wallet under Earned, separately from the balance you top up. Only Earned Coins can be withdrawn.
Earned Coins convert at 20 Coins = 1 USDT.
We may change the rate for the future; announced changes never apply to Coins already earned. The rate in force at the moment you request a payout is the one that applies to it.
| Age and identity verification | Required before any payout. See section 4 |
|---|---|
| Minimum payout | 400 Coins (about $20) |
| Waiting period | 30 days from registration, and 30 days between requests |
| Method | USDT to a crypto wallet address you provide |
| Processing | Normally within 3 business days of approval |
| Network fees | Deducted from the amount sent |
The waiting period exists so that a payment dispute or a fraud report can surface before the money has left. It is not a way to hold your earnings — once the period has passed, requests are processed in the ordinary course.
Before your first payout you must confirm you are over 18 by submitting a photo of an identity document showing your date of birth, and a selfie holding it.
These images are stored outside the public web directory, are readable only by an administrator through the admin console, and are deleted permanently as soon as the check is decided. We keep the decision and the date of birth, not the document. See the Privacy Policy.
You can build a profile, publish content and accumulate earnings before verifying. Only the withdrawal itself is blocked.
We pay you gross. Declaring that income and paying whatever tax and social contributions are due where you live is entirely your responsibility. We do not withhold tax on your behalf and we are not your employer — you use the Service as an independent person, not as staff.
Depending on where the operator is established we may have to report amounts paid to you, and may need identifying information from you to do so.
We may hold or refuse a payout, in whole or in part, when:
We tell you the reason and what would resolve it. Where a hold turns out to be unfounded, the payout proceeds with the waiting period counted from the original request rather than restarted.
Purchases are made in Telegram Stars and refunds are governed by Telegram's terms. Where a purchase is reversed after the Coins were already spent and paid out, we may recover the amount from future earnings.
If you close your account voluntarily, request your payout first. Earnings below the minimum cannot be paid out and are forfeited on closure. Earnings in an account terminated for breaching the Terms are forfeited.
