The credit system for Telegram chatbots works in two main ways:
1. Message Credits:
- Users can purchase credits that allow them to send messages to the chatbot.
- The bot owner determines how many credits are required per message.
- This system helps manage and monetize interactions with the bot.
2. Content Purchase:
- The chatbot can also sell exclusive content directly to users.
- Payments for this content can be made in two ways:
a) Via credit card: Users can make direct payments using their credit cards through Telegram's secure payment system.
b) Using Telegram Stars: Users can purchase Telegram's in-app currency (Stars) and use these to buy content from the bot.
Telegram's integrated payment system ensures secure transactions for both credit card payments and Star purchases.
