Gift Club link or Telegram affiliate link
Gift Club runs its own referral program, and it is also listed in Telegram's official affiliate programs at 20% for 3 months. You can use both. Each friend counts toward the link they arrived through.

Which link should I post?
If you play Gift Club yourself, the Gift Club link pays more: 30% with no end date, against 20% for 3 months. If you want Stars on your Telegram balance to spend anywhere in Telegram, use the affiliate link. Plenty of creators post one in their channel and the other in their own chats.

Your link is a gift, not an ad
A referral link converts when the friend gets something real. Here is what everyone who joins through yours starts with.
A free box, on you
The moment they open Gift Club through your link, a free box is waiting for them. It's your gift, and it costs you nothing.
A free box each at streak day 2
Reach streak day 2 within 7 days of joining, on your own device, and you get another free box. So does the friend who invited you, once per friend.
Games on Sparks
A games hub they can play with Sparks, which their daily streak pays. No top-up needed.
+30% on every top-up
For their first 24 hours, every Stars top-up comes with 30% on top. Not just the first one.
25 extra Sparks
Only for friends who came through a link: 25 Sparks on top of the 10 everyone starts with.
Free Stars for 5 days
A streak card that adds Stars on their first streak claim each day for their first 5 days.
A channel post you can copy
Paste it, swap in your link, publish. Written to be honest, because honest posts keep subscribers.
Your channel
🎁 I've been playing Gift Club, a game club right inside Telegram: gift boxes, scratch cards, Plinko, Mines and more. Join through my link and you get: • a free box, on me • another free box for both of us when you reach streak day 2 • games on Sparks, no top-up needed • +30% bonus Stars on every top-up in your first 24 hours • 25 extra Sparks for coming through a friend 👉 [your link]
Where a referral program fits
There are several ways to earn from a Telegram channel. They stack, so most creators use more than one.
| Method | What it pays | What you need |
|---|---|---|
| Telegram Ads revenue share | 50% of the ad revenue shown in your channel | A channel that meets Telegram's eligibility rules |
| Sponsored posts | Whatever you negotiate per post | Advertisers, and posts your readers put up with |
| Paid posts and Star subscriptions | The price you set in Stars | Content people will pay to unlock |
| Telegram affiliate programs | A share of purchases for a set period. Gift Club: 20% for 3 months | A link from Settings → My Stars |
| Gift Club referral program | 30% of every top-up, forever, in in-app Stars or Gram | Nothing. Anyone with a Telegram account |
A referral link is the only line in this table that keeps paying for a post you made months ago.
The small print, in plain words
- You earn 30% of every top-up, in the currency your friend paid: Stars for a Stars top-up, Gram for a Gram deposit (rounded down to 0.01 GRAM). Nothing is ever taken from your friend.
- Referral earnings land in your Stars or Gram balance, the balance you play with anywhere in Gift Club.
- A friend counts as yours when they open Gift Club for the first time through your link.
- Invite real people. Accounts created to farm the share are detected and flagged.
- Monday payday is Monday 00:00 UTC. Everything earned since the last one arrives as one message.
- Invite gift: a friend who opens Gift Club for the first time through your link gets a free box. It is your gift to them, and it costs you nothing.
- Day-2 bonus: when a friend you invited reaches streak day 2 within 7 days of joining, on their own device, you and the friend get a free box each, once per friend. Your half pays for up to 10 friends a week (Monday to Sunday); your friend's half always pays. We may withhold it when accounts share a device.
- Crew: a friend who already plays joins your crew by opening your link. They count toward your jar and claims, but get no free box and pay you no share. A crew member counts while they've claimed their streak in the last 7 days, up to 5 members.
Referral program FAQ
How much can I earn from Gift Club referrals?
30% of every Stars top-up your invited friends make, with no cap and no end date. If five friends each top up 200 Stars in a month, that month pays you 300 Stars.
When do I get paid?
Every Monday at 00:00 UTC. Everything your friends earned you during the week arrives as one message in the app, and a bot notification tells you it's there.
Do Gram deposits count?
Yes. When a friend you invited deposits Gram, you earn 30% of the deposit in Gram, rounded down to 0.01 GRAM. A 10 GRAM deposit earns you 3 GRAM, paid in the same Monday payday as your Stars.
Where do referral earnings go?
Into your Stars or Gram balance in Gift Club, the balance you play with anywhere in the app. If you want Stars on your Telegram balance instead, join Gift Club's Telegram affiliate program: 20% for 3 months, paid by Telegram.
What does Telegram's affiliate program pay?
Telegram lets apps open an affiliate program in Stars. Gift Club's pays 20% of what a friend spends in Stars for 3 months after they join, credited by Telegram to your account, channel or bot. Find it in Settings → My Stars → Earn Stars.
Does my friend lose anything?
No. Your share comes out of Gift Club's side, not theirs. They pay the normal price and start with +30% bonus Stars on every top-up in their first 24 hours.
Does my friend get a free box?
Yes. A friend who opens Gift Club for the first time through your link finds a free box waiting, as your gift. It costs you nothing, and they get it before they top up anything.
Do I get anything when my friend keeps their streak?
Yes. When a friend you invited reaches streak day 2 within 7 days of joining, on their own device, you and the friend get a free box each. It pays once per friend, and it is separate from your 30% share.
What is a crew?
Your crew is the friends who joined through your link. Each one who claimed their streak in the last 7 days adds 25 Sparks of room to your Spark jar and 10% to every streak claim you make, up to 5 friends.
Is there a limit on how many friends I can invite?
No. There is no cap on friends and no cap on what they earn you.
How do I monetize my Telegram channel with Gift Club?
Post your referral link or the invite card the app draws for you. Every subscriber who joins through it becomes your friend in the app, and 30% of every top-up they ever make is yours, paid every Monday.
Can I use both links?
Yes. Each friend counts toward whichever link they arrived through, so you can post the Gift Club link in one place and the Telegram affiliate link in another.
Your link is waiting in the app
Open Gift Club, tap Friends → Crew, and send your first invite. The first friend who tops up starts your 30%.
