How a Premium gift is paid in crypto, why no seller lists one month, what the App Store charges instead, and what Premium includes in 2026.

## What does each Premium plan cost?

| Plan | Quantity | Price | Price per unit |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 3 months | 3 months | $12.59 | — |
| 6 months | 6 months | $16.79 | — |
| 12 months | 12 months | $30.44 | — |

In every plan: Sent to the @username you give · Does not renew when its term ends · Full amount back to your balance if an order fails · No Telegram password or login code, ever

Premium comes in plans of 3, 6 or 12 months. There is no 1-month plan: Fragment has none. Every plan is Fragment’s price plus 5%, read on 4 November 2026.

**Before you pay**

- Minimum top-up $25. Top up once in crypto, then buy any plan from your balance.
- Unused balance stays on your account and never expires, and it pays for any Stars or Premium order. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it.
- Credited once your payment is checked on the blockchain. Typical network confirmation time: BTC ≈ 20 min · USDT TRC-20 ≈ 1 min · USDT ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · USDC ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · ETH ≈ 5 min · SOL ≈ 1 min · LTC ≈ 15 min

## How do I buy Premium step by step?

1. **Copy the @username** — It can be your own username or a friend’s. An order needs a public Telegram @username: 5 to 32 letters, digits or underscores.
2. **Pick 3, 6 or 12 months** — Each plan is one fixed term. The checkout shows the price in US dollars before you pay anything.
3. **Top up your balance** — Starting from a plan sets the top-up to its price. The minimum top-up is $25.
4. **Send the exact amount** — Send the exact amount shown to the address on the payment page, then click “I’ve sent the payment”. It is matched by its exact amount and credited once it is confirmed on the blockchain.
5. **Wait for the order** — Your order is sent once the payment is confirmed on the blockchain, within 24 hours. Premium shows in Telegram once Telegram credits it.

## Can I pay for Telegram Premium with crypto?

**Yes, through Fragment or a crypto seller, as a fixed-term gift to a username.** Telegram’s Premium FAQ names three ways to subscribe: the App Store, Google Play and @PremiumBot. Those are subscriptions on your own account, with recurring payments until you cancel. The crypto routes sell something else: a term of 3, 6 or 12 months sent to a username.

A gift can go to your own account. Fragment’s terms say a paid subscription can be applied to your own account or given away, and Aurelstar sends to whatever public @username you type. A Premium gift is a non-recurring subscription: it does not renew when its term ends.

## Can I buy Premium with USDT or Bitcoin?

**Yes, both, at Aurelstar: USDT on TRC-20 or ERC-20, and BTC on the Bitcoin network.** The full list is BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, and USDC goes on ERC-20 only. GRAM (Toncoin), Monero, Lightning, cards and PayPal are not accepted.

Fragment’s list is shorter and has no Bitcoin. On 4 November 2026 Fragment’s buy pages listed GRAM on TON, USDT on Ethereum, TON, Polygon and Tron, and USDC on Ethereum, Base and Polygon. A buyer who holds USDT can use Fragment directly at its list price, plus the network fee, by connecting a TON wallet. Fragment’s Premium page is the direct route for a buyer who holds USDT, USDC or GRAM. A holder of BTC, ETH, SOL or LTC has to swap first to use it.

## Why is there no 1-month Premium with crypto?

**Fragment’s gift page offers 12, 6 and 3 months and no 1-month option, and Aurelstar’s plans follow Fragment’s.** Premium comes in plans of 3, 6 or 12 months. There is no 1-month plan: Fragment has none. Sellers show the same gap. Of the 10 sellers with a readable Premium price that Aurelstar read on 4 November 2026, none listed a 1-month gift, and 3 months ran from $12.23 to $19.85.

Monthly billing is a renewing subscription. The US App Store listed it at $4.99 on that date, on your own store account and with no crypto. A one-week item sat at $1.19 in the same store.

## How does the price compare with Fragment and the App Store?

**A year of Premium cost $28.99 on Fragment, $30.44 at Aurelstar and $35.99 in the US App Store on 4 November 2026.** Fragment’s Premium form carried a “-20% SALE” label that day. Aurelstar does not know when that sale ends, and its prices follow Fragment’s if the label goes.

*Read on 4 November 2026. The App Store shows 10 items per storefront, so a missing item can still exist. Store plans renew on your own account; Fragment and Aurelstar terms do not renew.*

| Term | Aurelstar | Per month | Fragment | US App Store |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 month | None | – | None | $4.99, renewing |
| 3 months | $12.59 | $4.20 | $11.99 | Not listed |
| 6 months | $16.79 | $2.80 | $15.99 | Not listed |
| 12 months | $30.44 | $2.54 | $28.99 | $35.99, renewing |

*Read on November 4, 2026.*

On 4 November 2026, the US App Store listed Premium at $4.99 a month and Premium Annual at $35.99, both renewing subscriptions for your own account. Fragment’s 12-month gift cost $28.99, and our 12-month plan costs $30.44. Aurelstar is not always cheaper than in-app. On 4 November 2026, the App Store annual Premium plan cost less than Fragment’s $28.99 in 9 of the 24 storefronts that listed it, and less than our $30.44 in 12. Those store plans are renewing subscriptions on your own account, not gifts, and they need a store account in that country. On 3 months, three monthly payments cost less than Aurelstar’s plan in 15 of the 30 storefronts read, under the same conditions.

We do not claim to be the cheapest: some crypto sellers charged less on 4 November 2026. For 1,000 Stars, where our price is $15.75, split.tg showed $15.30, Gramix from $15.30 and GMPAPA $15.45. On 3 months of Premium, 3 sellers charged less: Gramix, GMPAPA and Shiba Bank.

## What does Telegram Premium include in 2026?

**Telegram’s Premium FAQ lists 16 features, led by doubled limits, 4 GB uploads and faster downloads.** The list read on 4 November 2026:

- Doubled limits and 4 GB uploads
- Faster downloads
- Voice-to-text, also for video messages
- Real-time translation
- Premium stickers, custom emoji and unique reactions
- Emoji statuses, profile badges and animated profile pictures
- Advanced chat management and app icons
- No ads and voice message privacy

The Premium terms add three limits. Included services can change, and some may become free or a separate tier (section 7.1). Faster downloads come from removing limits on Telegram’s side, and no actual speed is promised (7.5). Sponsored messages from Telegram’s ad platform go away, while a channel admin’s own promotions can still appear (7.6).

## Does a Premium gift renew, and can it be moved?

**A gift ends with its term, and it stays on the account it reached.** Telegram’s FAQ says a subscription cannot be moved to another account, so each account needs its own. That makes the username the one thing to check before paying. The recipient’s side of a gift is covered under [How do I gift Telegram Premium to a friend?](https://aurelstar.com/how-to-gift-telegram-premium/ "How do I gift Telegram Premium to a friend?").

## What other questions do people ask about Premium and crypto?

### Can I buy 1 month of Telegram Premium with crypto?

Premium comes in plans of 3, 6 or 12 months. There is no 1-month plan: Fragment has none. Monthly billing is a renewing subscription, through the stores or @PremiumBot.

### Is Aurelstar an authorized Telegram reseller?

No. Telegram’s authorized resellers are companies acting under licence. On 4 November 2026 its third-party payments page said they may include three Smart Glocal companies, in Hong Kong, the United Kingdom and the United States; Aurelstar is not one of them.

### Can Telegram remove Premium bought through a seller?

A ban on the account can. Telegram’s Premium terms have no clause on resale, and Fragment’s terms let a buyer give a subscription away; a ban on the account can still remove Premium with no compensation. A delivered order is final: it cannot be returned, cancelled or exchanged.

### What happens if the account already has Premium?

Telegram’s API documentation describes gifts to a user who does not have Premium. It says nothing, in the pages read on 4 November 2026, about an active subscription. Aurelstar claims no outcome, so ask the recipient before you pay.

### Do I have to give a Telegram password or login code?

No. An order is sent straight to the customer’s username. Aurelstar never asks for a Telegram password, login code or session.
