# Run a paid Telegram channel or group

Charge for a Telegram group or channel; members are added after payment and removed when they stop paying. Each buyer gets an invite link right after paying. When a subscription ends, SuperProfile removes the member for you, so the member list follows the payments.

## How do payments and payouts work?
In India you sell through SuperProfile's own checkout (UPI, cards and netbanking) after KYC, without your own payment gateway account, and earnings are paid out to your bank account the next day (T+1). Selling needs a paid SuperProfile plan; plans and fees differ by country, so see the [SuperProfile pricing page](https://superprofile.bio/pricing).

## How do I start?

1. [Create a free SuperProfile account](https://superprofile.bio/signup) and complete KYC to accept payments in India.
2. Add paid telegram communities from your dashboard and fill in the details.
3. Preview it, publish it, and share the link in your bio, an Auto-DM or a post.

## How do I share it from Instagram?
Put the link in your bio, or send it with [Instagram auto DMs](https://superprofile.bio/auto-dm): people who comment a keyword on your Reel or post get a DM with a button that opens your paid Telegram community.

Sample data. The DM button opens your paid Telegram community, and members get the invite link after paying.

## Can an AI assistant set this up for me?
Yes. Connect the [SuperProfile MCP server](https://superprofile.bio/mcp) to Claude or ChatGPT and ask, for example: “Set up my Telegram group as a paid community with a monthly plan and show it to me before publishing.” New products and automations start as drafts you can review first. Edits to something already live apply when saved.
