Pricing
Prices and durations are configured by TG.app and can change. For current amounts, see the live table on Products & pricing.
Typical billing models:
- Promote and Category top: choose a duration (7 to 365 days). Longer runs cost more. Category top uses a calendar to pick the start date; you can book future slots when a column is occupied.
- Full package: fixed bundle of promote (365 days), category top (365 days in your column, immediate start only), and verification. Total price is the sum of those longest-period prices minus the bundle discount (default 10%). Available only when your listing is not yet verified and your category top slot is free today.
- Verification: one-time fee, no renewal.
After purchase
- Promote and Category top activate until the selected end date. You can renew before expiry.
- Full package activates all three benefits in one payment: 1 year promote, 1 year category top, and permanent verification.
- Verification stays on the listing after successful payment and review.
Campaign advertising (Mini Apps, bots, channels) is separate: use the Advertiser panel and fund a USDT wallet on Billing.
Community owners can enable Community monetization so advertisers buy posts via the Community ad marketplace.
