How well USDT BEP-20 fits paid channels

Good fit · Fit 50%

A good option next to your main coin.

Pros

  • Low network fee: paying even small amounts makes sense for the customer.

Subscriptions

Moonvex issues the invoice for the next month and sends you an event.

Automatic access

The webhook is the signal for your bot to hand out an invite link.

Cheaper than Ethereum

The network fee for the customer is a matter of cents, which makes BEP-20 a good fit for small orders.

The setup is simple: your sales bot creates a subscription via the API, sends a payment link and, once it receives the payment event, issues a one-time invite link to the channel. When a subscription isn’t renewed, the bot removes the member.

0x addresses are the same on BNB Smart Chain and Ethereum, so customers sometimes pick the wrong network. In Moonvex, an address on the shared EVM key is watched on both networks, and the payment page shows in large type which network the transfer is expected on.

Recommended coin set for paid channels

To cover most customers, enable on the checkout page: USDT on TON, Toncoin (TON), USDT TRC-20. The customer picks the network, and every payment lands on one project balance.

One request to create a payment

The response contains the address, the exact amount and a link to a ready-made payment page. Status updates arrive via HMAC-signed webhooks.

FAQ

Which currency should the price be in when customers pay in USDT BEP-20?

USDT BEP-20 is pegged to the dollar, so you can set the price in the coin or in USD; the amounts are nearly the same.

Can I do this without my own bot?

Yes, issue invoices manually and add members yourself. A bot is only needed for automation.

Are BEP-20 and BEP-2 the same thing?

No. BEP-2 is the legacy BNB Beacon Chain network. Moonvex accepts BEP-20 tokens on BNB Smart Chain.

What if a subscriber pays late?

You’ll receive the payment event and can restore their access.

Do I need BNB for payouts?

The service tops up gas for payouts and fund sweeps; you don’t need to keep BNB on payment addresses.
