Crypto Pay (Developers)
The merchant API: apps, invoices, transfers, and webhooks.
What is Crypto Pay?
Crypto Pay is the app's payment API for businesses and bots. You create an app, get an API token, and use it to bill Telegram users, pay them out, and read your balance — all from your own code.
Getting started as a developer
Create an app in the Mini App, copy its API token once, and start calling the API. The whole setup lives under More → Merchant API.
Accepting payments with invoices
An invoice is how you charge a Telegram user. You create one through the API, send the payer its link, and your app balance is credited the instant they confirm.
Crypto Pay fees and limits
Invoices carry a platform fee taken from what you receive; transfers and checks are bounded by amount limits. None of the figures are fixed here — they're live settings, and the reliable way to read them is off your own paid invoices.
