Storefront figures are in US dollar terms at rates from open.er-api.com, updated on 4 November 2026 at 00:02 UTC. The App Store shows 10 items per storefront, so an item missing from a list has not been ruled out.

How much is Telegram Premium per month?

The monthly plan cost $4.99 in the US App Store on 4 November 2026, and no gift route sells a single month. Aurelstar read the monthly Premium plan in 30 App Store storefronts on 4 November 2026: from $3.25 (Indonesia) to $6.69 (United Kingdom) in US dollar terms.

A one-week item also exists: $1.19 in the US list, and about $1 to $1.60 in most storefronts. Telegram’s FAQ says a subscription stays on the account that bought it and cannot move to another one. Every storefront is listed in What does Telegram Premium cost in each country in 2026?.

How much is Premium for 3, 6 or 12 months?

Fragment charged $11.99 for 3 months, $15.99 for 6 and $28.99 for 12 on 4 November 2026, which is $4.00, $2.67 and $2.42 a month. Premium comes in plans of 3, 6 or 12 months. There is no 1-month plan: Fragment has none.

At Aurelstar the price is Fragment’s price plus 5%, read on 4 November 2026: $12.59, $16.79 and $30.44, or $4.20, $2.80 and $2.54 a month. These plans are gifts sent to a @username, paid in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC.

Of the 10 sellers with a readable Premium price, 3 charged less than Aurelstar for 3 months: Gramix, GMPAPA and Shiba Bank. 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.

Inside the App Store, Aurelstar found a one-off 3-month item in 13 of the 30 storefronts it read, from $14.10 to $19.86. Telegram’s FAQ says gifted subscriptions use a global rate, yet these items still differ by storefront.

The buying steps are in How do I buy Telegram Premium with crypto?, and what a recipient sees is in How do I gift Telegram Premium to a friend?.

What does Fragment’s “-20% SALE” label mean?

The label sat on Fragment’s Premium form on 4 November 2026 with no start date and no end date, so Fragment’s list price is not known. The page also shows badges of -20%, -47% and -52% on the three plans, and those match a comparison with $4.99 a month.

A price built on Fragment moves when Fragment moves. If the sale ends, every price that follows Fragment’s, including Aurelstar’s, follows it at the next reading. The date of the current reading is on How much do Telegram Stars and Premium cost at Aurelstar?.

Is a year of Premium cheaper in the app or on Fragment?

It depends on the storefront: the US annual plan cost 24% more than Fragment’s 12-month gift, and 9 other storefronts charged less than that gift. The annual plan ran from $24.75 (Indonesia) to $42.12 (South Africa) across the 24 storefronts that listed it.

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.

  • Under Fragment’s price: Indonesia, Philippines, Egypt, India, Vietnam, South Korea, Turkey, Brazil and Pakistan.
  • Under Aurelstar’s price: Indonesia, Philippines, Egypt, India, Vietnam, South Korea, Turkey, Brazil, Pakistan, Kazakhstan, Mexico and Ukraine.

The annual plan is a renewing subscription for your own account, not a gift, and it needs a store account in that country. The same applies to the monthly plan: three monthly payments cost less than Aurelstar’s 3-month plan in 15 of the 30 storefronts read.

Does Telegram Premium renew automatically?

A subscription renews and a gift does not. Telegram’s Premium terms describe recurring monthly or yearly payments until you cancel (section 1). You cancel in Telegram’s settings, in Apple’s settings or in Google Play, and access runs to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the days left (sections 2.1 and 2.2). Fees can change on renewal, with at least 30 days’ notice of a material change (sections 6.1 and 6.2).

A Premium gift is a non-recurring subscription: it does not renew when its term ends. There is nothing to cancel, and Premium stops at the end of the term unless a new gift or a subscription follows.

How much does Premium cost through @PremiumBot?

No @PremiumBot price could be read, because the bot has no public price page and needs a Telegram login. Telegram’s FAQ says the bot’s prices are discounted because no store fee applies, and that the bot works only in the direct Android, Desktop and macOS apps. The currency and first price follow the phone number’s country code, then the country of the payment method.

Third-party pages report about $3.99 a month, and that figure is not verified. Google Play’s prices per item were not captured either.

What else do people ask about the cost of Premium?

Can I buy just 1 month of Telegram Premium as a gift?

No: Fragment sells 3, 6 and 12 months, and no seller read listed 1 month. A monthly plan exists only as a renewing subscription on your own account.

How many Stars does a Premium gift cost?

That figure is not published on any page read on 4 November 2026. Telegram’s Stars terms say gift subscriptions can be bought with Stars (section 6.3), and its API returns the options at run time.

Can I move Premium to another account?

No. Telegram’s Premium FAQ says a subscription cannot be moved, and each account needs its own.

Can I get a refund on Premium?

Telegram’s terms call charges generally nonrefundable, with no partial refund on early cancellation (section 5). A delivered order is final: it cannot be returned, cancelled or exchanged. If an order fails, its full amount goes back to your balance.

What happens if a gift goes to an account that already has Premium?

That is not documented in what Aurelstar read. Telegram’s API pages describe a gift to a user who does not have Premium.
