What Counts as Billable

A group is billable when:

  • Group status is active.
  • Billing status is billable.

Paused or disconnected groups are non-billable.

Top-Ups

Top-ups are handled in a private Telegram chat with the bot.

Supported payment methods in the product flow:

  • CryptoBot.
  • Telegram Stars.

Default top-up amounts are:

$5
$10
$25
$50

The configured minimum top-up is $1 by default.

Low Balance

The billing page shows a low-balance warning when the balance is running low relative to the daily cost.

If balance reaches an insufficient state, active billable groups can be billing-paused by setting their billing status to non-billable until the account is topped up.
