How well USDT ERC-20 fits paid channels

As an extra option · Fit 25%

Enable it for customers who hold this coin, but pick another one as the main method.

Pros

  • A stablecoin pegged to the dollar: your revenue does not depend on the exchange rate.

Keep in mind

  • Telegram users often pay from the built-in wallet: add TON or USDT on TON as an option.
  • The network fee is noticeable: for small orders add a cheaper network to the checkout, such as BEP-20, TON or Solana.

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.

USDC and USDT

The two main stablecoins on one network — customers pay with whatever they have.

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.

Network fees on Ethereum are higher than on TRON or BSC, so it makes sense to offer ERC-20 for large payments and B2B invoices, with alternatives on other networks for small orders. One payment page can show several options.

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.
